Lol. I noticed a lot of the conversations that take place here are definetly: unnecessarily repetitive. Only reason they probably even stay in conversation is due to technology advances, which of the companies adopt those changes, overall industry standard changes, regulation and formulation...

Hello! Apologies if this is not ok to request here, but I was curious after I have not been successful in my search: Are there any recent VOA's for these motor oils (within the past 2-3 years) * Mobil1 - Extended Performance - SN * Pennzoil - Platinum - High Mileage - SN Any viscosity would...
