Twisted 99,
Since you work for them let us know what is up with the "Tri Synthetic" I have not heard very good stuff about it. It seems like instead of being just PAO's now they are using "other" synthetics. I don't know if its better or not I am just trying to get the scoop! I would hate for Mobil to turn into another "Castrol Syntec" by changing their product.
------------------
Want the First and Best Synthetics Available?

WHAT? I don't know what you have heard about Mobil 1....but it is VERY good oil. Of course it is not the *best* Synthetic on the market..but I have read and heard nothing but positive reviews on it.
I read on another post that you are a distributor for AMSOIL...fact or fiction? Just asking...
Twisted99...can you provide any more info on the 5 or 6 lot numbers that were recalled recently?

I bought mobil 5w-30 for my truck today. I found 3 qts with the bad lot #'s. I asked the store manager if the oil was recalled. He said yes. He went back and double checked his stock right then. He said It should have been pulled.
