Oh crap, here we go again.

I run it in our two newer vehicles and really like. I like it so much that I signed up to be a dealer. As you will soon see there are people here that hate it for reasons that don't really seem logical.

The only benifet to running any synthetic including Amsoil is extended change intervals. It is good oil but a bit on the pricey side, but it's your money to spend.

A good dino will get you to 5k no problem btw....

xtr is right, there are 20 different oils out there that are all "great" and will give extended life on any new motor. oils today are far advanced over a few years ago... if you want synthetic oil, o.k, if you want dino, o.k. either is acceptable, either will give fantastic performance as long as you change it at 5000 mile intervals to get any carbon, water, condensation, blowby, gasoline, etc out of the crankcase. it should be obvious that longer trips in a shorter period of time, in warmer climates will cause less of the above contaminants and therefore might extend the change intervals.
