If it was not for dead carbon base life, then DINO OIL would not exist.
However, it has been proven already that synthetic oil has a small dramatic
increase in performance than regular oil. I would not recommend in using
Mobil 1 unless you have a performance vehicle.

Too bad your analogy is totally flawed. Dino juice is just as high tech in
the lab as synthetic oil is. I think we are all in agreement that a pure
synthetic base motor oil is better than dino as far as protection, but the
difference isn't that much. If dino was that bad, and engineered by half
wits as you contend, why has it been good enough to keep heavy industrial
engines on the road for over a million miles? Why don't we seen oil related
failures in far more engines than we do?
Agreed, that changing the oil regularly is more important than the specific
brand, but using your analogy to determine what to use is a laugh. If you
really care about what oil you put in your engine, you will have the used
oil analyzed on a schedule so you can be sure it's doing it's job instead of
simply reading the marketing information published by the oil company. If
the oil which shows the least contaminent content happens to be the
$.50/quart jug on the discount shelf, would you still avoid it just because
brand X says it's junk?

<snip> Here's my analogy of oils. Synthetic is engineered by people with
IQ's over 80 to run in a engine... but dino oil is just what some inbred
hillbilly finds while out hunting.
What would you put in your $20,000.00 truck knowing that???
