You know the reason, Bill.
An extra $10 for synthetic over conventional isn't a big deal compared to $1000 a year in gas, right?
(shrug). Right! Why should I get in a tizzy spending $8 extra for Mobil 1 versus Mobil 5000, when I'm already burning almost $1000 out of the fuel tank? It seems silly for just one percent savings. The way that *I* save costs is by not blowing it on ~80 a month cable or ~50 a month cellphone.

Amazing how you have to
justify wasting $$ that will do
NO good in the end run. So instead of sticking on point you have to bring in gas and cable bills/cell phones... Good job!
Please don't call me dumb and hitting me over the head.
If I want to use Mobil 1 instead of Mobil 5000 conventional, that is MY choice, and I don't have to justify it to you or President George "duh" Bush or the IRS or Nancy Pelosi or anybody else. It is MY money coming from MY wallet and MY paycheck. The extra 6 to 8 dollars every 3-4 months is literally nothing for me
Then why do you keep trying to justify it to everyone in this thread? By the way I run 5k intervals on conventional, had the engine apart to replace timing components. No sludge. Actually I was surprised just how clean it was. Like I previously said in this thread I will use what the manufacturer specifies for my vehicle. If my truck required synthetic I would have no problem using it and I have no problem with you using it. Oh and I do a decent amount of towing and hauling too on my 5k mile intervals.
