After searching the web I find a lot of negitive opinions ofHarley Syn3 oil. I also see that Amsoil floods the web with their oilproduct. Makes me wonder if their oil is all that good. Also the so called 4 ball test is not used by major oil companys. There also doesn't seem to be any reliable INDEPENDENT lab test reports on oil comparisons. At this point I am inclined to go with Mobil1 V twinatmy next oil change only because Mobile is a large established and trusted company. Any opinions on this?

LP said it best, "Just pick one." I already gave my 2Â¢, but I like his recommendation.

An example of this would be the commericals run by Apple Computers, the content of some these being patently false in some cases, grossly hyperbolic in others, yet are often amusing and probably sell computers. Do you see Dell or M$ suing Apple for obvious inaccuracies in these commericals?

Sorry, I haven't seen an Apple commercial yet that names Dell or any other computer manufacturer by name. If they did, there might be a lawsuit!

True, they haven't, but use the generic term "PC," which implicates Dell, etc. "PC" traditionally refers to an "IBM-compatible" personal computer, nowadays translated as a computer running Windows, but in fact a Mac is also a PC, which literally means "personal computer." When they use the term "PC" in their commercials everyone knows they are pointing the finger at M$.
