55 cents? Okay, now explain how 55 cents makes such a difference to
Ferrari and BMW who also recommend Mobil One.

now this makes more sense to me because this is typical behavior of how
corporations work. one of the key goals of a corporation is to cut
costs so they can be competitive in the market and ultimatly lower the
price of their product. using a more expensive oil and raising the
price of each truck by 55 cents would be the opposite. you cant look at
it from the perspective of 55 cents per vehicle. it is that savings
plus whatever other methods they can come up with to save some money.
