Get outta here. It's generally more expensive than Rotella T6 5W-40 is the only reason I don't run it.
How did you manage this? Did you find some naked pictures of somebody or something? That's about 1/3 price; I would buy a truckload.

If I were closer I'd be buying the beer.

I've run this oil off and on for over 200K...I still have my original injectors. If you don't buy any stop teasing the rest of us.

mobil 1 is the lowest grade of a synthetic oil made. its a step about a syn blend. go with amsoil or rotella t6 for a better option

I ran Amzoil....truck wasn't happy.

Ran the old version and now the new version Rot T6....good results. I would recommend the T6 as well.

Read up BOBISTHEOILGUY.com....Mobil 1 TDT is pretty well respected. When I did my research that site helped a TON.

Amzoil dealers just want to make a sale...No real gains for me so it was bunk.
