I have seen so much when companies jump on the political bandwagon, political correctness bandwagon, or make a decision based on some study published by the news, instead of going off what the market will support,it often ends in failure. And don't worry about if it will become a necessity, service facilities found good use of there used motor oil. Heating. So basically when time comes when motor oil companies feel its necessary, they will have to give more money than what heating fuel costs, which will basically be more practical to use virgin oil.
