So I will never switch back nor was I worried when it slowly leaked about half a quart. Happy trucking! Go with MOBIL1!!!!!! I love it
For sure, Mobil 1 is great for mileage too.

Also everyone, NOT ALL SYNTHETICS ARE ACTUAL 100% SYNTHETIC.

Some are hydrocranked conventional oils and not true PAO based 100% pure true synthetic.

The only true synthetics are:

Mobil 1
Amsoil
Esso XD-3 Synthetic 0w30 (Canada only: Best oil in the world)
Redline
Castrol Syntec 0w30 (Has to have "Made in Germany" on the back of the bottle)
