Yup this **** gets asked at least once usually twice a week in here.

OP we have a whole subsection just for oil & related posts, theres enough about Mobil and other synthetics to make your brain bleed.

 

So you talked to a competitor rep and you were surprised that the rep was not a fan of Mobil?

 

Really don't understand why it bothers people. Don't open the threads if you don't like them. Simple really.

 

Bothers a lot of us because there's a huge dedicated sub forum just for oil newbies and those who love to rehash it weekly but is seems they NEVER can find it.

 

Yes it is ok to use. Yes I have used it. I use it in my Honda and used to use it in my 96 but use redline in my 124.

 

Im a big fan of Mobil One V-twin oil for my bikes. In my car I run Mobil One extended performance with matching filter and only change my oil once per year. I also run Mobil One in my airplane, never fell out of the sky yet.

 

Mobile was never brought up. Just talking about Redline.

 

OK, my bad -- you're saying the Redline "V-twin and the regular 20-50 are the same formula, just $3 more per quart."

Right?

 

even though there is a subforum for it, and it gets brought up weekly, there never seems to be a shortage of misinformation....

 

"Interesting" ! Their V-Twin transmission oil is the same as their Automotive transmission oil and is offered at the exact same price on the Redline website along with the posted comment:

* "Same fluid as our unique Heavy ShockProof® Gear Oil".

I'm just mystified as to why they don't have a similar comment, and price relationship, for their "same thing" 20-50 motor oils. Same company - different policies ??
