There is a guy on you tube who I trust more then Scott. His name is Eric. He put the oil in his car and will show the results in a year.

Are you an engineer? I would tend to believe an engineer.
Amsoil has 15K and 20K oil filters.
It is doubtful you could clog up an oil filter by using a 15 or 20K Amsoil filter unless you had some real bad prior problems.
Yes, but I am not an automotive engineer. I am also cheap as hell. I don't find value in stretching the life span of an $8 part for some odd longevity reason. I drive my vehicles as long as possible. If you are the type who trades in their truck every 3 years, who cares? I however want to avoid future issues. Also, I have the lifetime warranty from Chrysler and want to make sure I meet all requirements. Changing the factory fill at 1200 miles might be excessive but it may also help remove any burrs or other break in results from the engine. It's baffling to want to run oil longer than 10k miles IMO. I used to sell Amsoil and tried my hardest to get people to switch from Mobil 1. I was mainly trying to push it's lubricating and detergent benefits rather than the extended drain interval marketing spiel. It was a tough sell as Mobil 1 is a great product and readily available locally. Due to specifications for the Hemi, I run PP and a Fram Ultra synthetic filter for 8500 miles.
Go back to post 50 and re-read what you wrote and my response.
Yeap thats him. That sucks he stopped making videos. I really like him.Eric the Car Guy perhaps?
Was it him that stopped doing his videos so he could go on to his Fairmont project to race it or something?
It's not new, Amsoil has been around for years. If you believe all the hype 25k/ 1 year.

Yeah, it was avaition originated, I'm thinking latter part of 70's is when it was available to general public. At that time it was the cat's meow. Over the years other companies and the oil industry has caught up to or even surpassed them. Don't get me wrong, it's still a good oil and I still use it in some of my vehicles but it don't stand alone anymore.Seems like I read some years back in the late 60;s that the oil was developed for USA Fighter Aircraft's....way before any one herd of Synthetic oils. The oil back them made air craft motors survive very threw very tough conditions and abuse from Long term extreme heat!!

Check Eric's video. Send out oil for testing after 1 year of driving
There is no special additives that are required to be Mopar approved, it's just submitting to their stupid 2 year test.Mobile 1 is a great oil with no doubt. The Video is very informative. It would be interesting to see the same test comparing other oils such as PUP which is required to run in MOPAR. Wish Mobil 1 would apply the additive MOPAR requires so we could run Mobil 1 or other choosing of oils. No one would say Mobil 1 is a bad oil at all. But after spending 45 to 80 Grand on a New MOPAR truck one would not want to have arguments with MOPAR if Warranty work should be needed on the motor. The Big car Companies may not win the legal battle but they can sure drag one out to cost us little guys lots of $$$ to fight it!
