Jon, it depends on what you are using it for. I assume it would test as
good or better than dino oil. I would not use it for extended oil
changes like the Mobil 1 is good at. Heck, the Benz taked 0w40 Mobil 1
and MB says it's good for 10k. I am still waiting on the 10k sample to
come back though...
