New Mobil Super Synthetic

[HBCALI]

Who has anything constructive to say about new Mobil Super Synthetic? Been using Valvoline Syn Power in my 2001 Honda and 2006 Toyota (have used Mobil 1 before). But with crude prices climbing, Mobil Super is offering thier product under $4.00 qt. I'm waiting for the "catch".

So whats the scoop? Is Super a detergent oil? Is it comparable to Mobil 1, etc?

I have been wondering, too. At $3.49/qt I may have to try it out. Im sure it is close to Mobil 1.

Not really, as pointed out in their marketing literature:

Click on "Compare to Mobil 1" for more details once you're on that page.

Yeah, but it's still dirt cheap for "synthetic", especially for a huge brand-name like Exxon Mobil. In my neck of the woods, $3.49 is cheaper than QSUD! What's the catch?
