Awesome oil article
« on: November 23, 2009, 11:18:50 AM »
Howdy all,
 
   A friend sent me the link to this article.  If you ever wondered about oils, this should provide more than enough information to make you own decision about what to use in your vehicles.

I am assuming this is the appropriate section of the forum to post this in.  If not; I apologize in advance.

No section is appropriate for oil discussions.  ;D

Just kidding.  ;)

This article is the reason I don't post "oil questions".....  Maybe in the future it will have the same affect on someone else  ;D

I have seen that article and from what I have seen, it is actually pretty accurate.
I know some people have the anti-synthetic phobia that is based from shadetree mechanics in the 60s. Much of the old wives tales are no longer true.
I use synth and will not go back.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?
