Usually Mobil1 ow30 clears it quick though. Had a guy walk up and ask me to pop the hood so he could find out where the ticking is coming from. I politely said "no thanks, well aware of the ticking and what the cause is". He then proceeds to give me his business card "Amsoil" and tells me he has something that will cure that instantly. I tell him no thanks and he then begins to tell me how I can sell Amsoil. At that point I merely smiled, said no thanks and got in my car. He was still talking as I started my car to go.
Maybe it is the greatest oil in the world but that is strike 2. Mobil 1 and Royal Purple are working just fine for me.
your two strikes are simply lack of understanding honest buisness practice.
you said you tried to buy Amsoil. NO you didnt!
Mobil1 only 1 best blend oil is good up too 15,000 miles and royal purple is good for 12,000 miles as advertised by the companies.
how is mutiple oil changes with M1 and RP cheaper than Amsoil?
RP cost more than Amsoil and M1
and by looking at all the M1 and Amsoil UOA I will stick with Amsoil cause it is better not cause I was deterred...
Yes I did try to buy amsoil. I was ready to put it in my bikes. I called a dealer so I could find out where they were located. Mom AND Pop were on the phone telling me how great it was and started asking about me selling it. Deterred me from going to their business to buy it.
Read you loud and clear on what you are saying and not arguing. I too am guilty of also liking the convenience of going down the street to buy my oil. Yes, I am a little caught off guard by honest business practice and that is probably all it was. Not writing it off, still am curious about the product and may one day go down that road when it is covenient, and cost effective.
