I would like to know the real benefits of using a synthetic motor oil. I
run Mobil 1 synthetic in my truck and I change my oil about every 3000-3500
miles. I don't do any of that 6000 mile interval stuff because I just don't
trust oil sitting in my truck that long, but can anyone tell me if Mobil 1
is really worth it or am I just wasting my money on the stuff. I hear that
it is really good and I don't have the knowledge or the resources for
tearing down an engine and really seeing whether the Mobil 1 is doing its
job. Any input on the matter from anyone will be greatly appreciated. Oh
yeah, and on the 6000 mile interval guys, I'm not knocking what you're
doing, but do you guys really trust the filter to hold up that long? I'm
willing to believe that the Mobil 1 is good stuff because of the
manufactuers who roll their engines off the line with them...(Porsche,
Mercedes, The Vettes and Vipers....), but I don't know of any filter that I
would trust to last that long. Let me know what you guys think.

Robert.
