Pure bullcrap. You can switch and switch back when ever you feel like it.

Check out the Mobil1 website, they state you can switch back and forth between synthetic and dino. This is another urban legend that refuses to die.

Complete BS, and more "old, antique thinking". You can go back and forth with no problems. Routine oil and filter changes using quality lubricants and filters is the key to long engine life. Just don't overfill your crankcase's capacity. Foamed, air bubbles oil makes for a lousy lubricant, while putting higher pressure on seals and gaskets in an engine.
