Default I don't believe AMSoil somehow better, and also cheesy pyramidlooking distribution net, remind me...

Amsoil is great stuff. I do not sell it, I use it. Best oil IMO. Look at the wear tests.

Default Follow Up: AMSoil vs. Mobil1? comparison? What to use in S. Florida climate. 0W30?

Its confirmed that here in S. Florida, 5W-40 is the best type to use. Now its doen to the brand. BJ's Wholesale has Mobil1 for $4/bottle. AMSoil is $6.50/bottle. The local Audi dealer uses Castrol Syntec 5W-40, but I've heard good and bad things about CAstrol in Audi's. Whats would you guys prefer if it were you?
