okay first things first.
I use RP and will be switching to AMsoil on next change for the $$$ savings. JMO.

am just wondering about this new oil and looking for thoughts.


now from this 'new' add i saw.......

since Mobil one is not on the top 2 list (from most folks here).
does this Castrol add really make sense?

or does it put Castrol up with RP?

just wondering if thier claim is REALLY as good as what they are trying to make folks beleive...?

your thoughts?

I would be willing to go with the BS statements, but on the other hand, supposedly M1 has been slipping ever since Exxon came into the pic.

I concur. That seems a bit crazy. Then Amsoil/RP would be what? Like 20x better? I don't think so.

Guess it depends on whoes tests you want to believe. Amsoil tests show that Royal Purple is crap so who knows. Try it and see if you like it.The easiest way to tell wear protection is the color it comes out JMO.
