Me too, I have used Mobil One since it came out in the 70s, (I sorta
remember the 70s). No problems, but I don't run it over 5,000 miles. I
just figure since most every top exotic recommends it, it must be good
stuff.

Nothing wrong with Amsoil other than the price.
I have been using Mobil 1 for over 20 years now. I put well over 200,000
miles
on my vehicles and have never had any issues using it, for that matter I
have
never had an internal engine failure of any kind with an engine that has had
Mobil 1 in it.
FWIW, I change my Mobil 1 oil at 7500 mile intervals.
