Re: Mobile 1 Extended Performance
Nice to have such positive comments.
I never said or implied that the oil I was/am using is "invincible." I just
made the comment that I have been pleased with it (Mobile1).
I think I will just take a break from the group. Too much negativity.
Did you even see or read the "disclaimer?" <"Or does it not really make
that much difference?">
You ask a simple question or make a comment and you get blasted. I see it
over and over and over again. I thought the purpose of the newsgroup was to
be helpful, give and offer advice, and ask questions.
Guess I just don't get it.
I regret even having made the original post.

Re: Mobile 1 Extended Performance
Sorry man but the last person I know to make claims about how long
between oil changes 'he' could go ended up with the oil pressure
'mysteriously' pegged out and upon inspection we found 6" of solid black
goo inside his oil pan....
He then promptly sold the truck to some unsuspecting fool while still
making 'great' oil comments....
Oh, I think if you look, the castrol is 'fake' synthetic, (could be
wrong there) with a high price because of the name not the original
synthetic like Mobile uses in 'some' of it's oils.
The oil companies made the word 'synthetic' a buzz word that actually
only means it costs more, nothing else. They took the 'real'
'synthetic' oil makers to court over the definition and won.

Re: Mobile 1 Extended Performance
Sorry man but the last person I know to make claims about how long
between oil changes 'he' could go ended up with the oil pressure
'mysteriously' pegged out and upon inspection we found 6" of solid black
goo inside his oil pan....
He then promptly sold the truck to some unsuspecting fool while still
making 'great' oil comments....
Oh, I think if you look, the castrol is 'fake' synthetic, (could be
wrong there) with a high price because of the name not the original
synthetic like Mobile uses in 'some' of it's oils.
The oil companies made the word 'synthetic' a buzz word that actually
only means it costs more, nothing else. They took the 'real'
'synthetic' oil makers to court over the definition and won.

Re: Mobile 1 Extended Performance
Well...again I ask "...did you even read my original post...?" I never said
anything about "...how long (I) could go between oil changes..." OR about
the so-called "invincibility" to which you refer, but I have already
commented about that.
BTW...both Castrol Syntec & Mobile1 are fully synthetic oils, as are Red
Line and Amsoil.
I do use synthetic and I am not ashamed to do so. My Jeep Wrangler Sport is
a 2001 (bought new in May 2001), and only has 23,000 miles. I never go past
3 - 3.5 K on the "oil." This averages to under 20 miles a day
(roughly)...98% city driving...which means I can go up to 6 months between
oil changes. That is one of the reasons why I use synthetic oil. It is
also my choice to do so...like it or not...agree with it or not.
I give up. Please disregard my original post entirely.
Campbell Freeman
And thanks Jerry Bransford. I always appreciate your posts, knowledge,
measured approach, and advice.

anything about "...how long (I) could go between oil changes..." OR about
the so-called "invincibility" to which you refer, but I have already
commented about that.
BTW...both Castrol Syntec & Mobile1 are fully synthetic oils, as are Red
Line and Amsoil.
I do use synthetic and I am not ashamed to do so. My Jeep Wrangler Sport is
a 2001 (bought new in May 2001), and only has 23,000 miles. I never go past
3 - 3.5 K on the "oil." This averages to under 20 miles a day
(roughly)...98% city driving...which means I can go up to 6 months between
oil changes. That is one of the reasons why I use synthetic oil. It is
also my choice to do so...like it or not...agree with it or not.
I give up. Please disregard my original post entirely.

And thanks Jerry Bransford. I always appreciate your posts, knowledge,
measured approach, and advice.
