oil
Yea everyone knows Mobil 1 stopped making the full PAG Synthetic years ago and replaced it with the SuperSyn crapola. At least they lowered the price since its not as good or hard to make.
I remember tests of the old stuff where they had motorcycles with 10k+ redlines use the stuff and found NO WEAR at 100,000 miles! Same thing with Taxi drivers running mobil 1.
However that was before they changed the formula so I doubt its as good, more of a money maker for them.
If you want true synthetic you have to get Amsoil or Royal Purple which you won't find at Wal Mart. So I would say Mobil 1 SuperSyn is the best you are going to do.
