If it really could yield "8.2%" improvement, you can bet it would ship
in vehicles and be recommended.

Those big rig manufacturers give a longer warrantee if you use synthetics.

OK, I can believe that, but those are intened for far more miles (10
times?) than the average Joe or Jane runs a conventional gas engine.

Your point?

And the statement is not true anyway.

Tell that to the truckers I know.

Being a small-time AmsOil dealer for the past 20-years can attest that
AmsOil is by far better than any other product being offered on the market.
It takes time to change your mind-set to switch over but once you do, you
will discover the benefits. It also behooves you to do your own research on
all the products being offered. Independent tests show that AmsOil out
performs ANY of the products being offered today. The AmsOil web site has a
tremendous amount of information, you just have to take the time to check it
out.

Even if they put the API logo on them now, I'd still not let any
Scamsoil product near any of my vehicles given their history and their
spamming.

The best MPG increase I've seen with my truck was from switching to
skinny overinflated tires (LT215/85-R16D's.) They also perform *much*
better on slushy roads than the stock P255 tires. The next thing I'm
gonna try is adding a half-tonneau cover (back half) to reduce wind
resistance. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4573730.html

Oil has gotten so good, I don't think there's much efficiency to be
gained there, unless you are still running SA-rated straight
30-weight. (queue the Crazy Scotsman with the dipstick) ;-)

Okay, attest.

Name the OEM approvals that Amsoil meets.
GM 6094M?
GM 4718M?
Ford M2C929-A?
Ford M2C930-A?
Chrysler MS6395M?
Chrysler MS6395Q?
Honda HTO-06?
VW 503.01?
VW504?
VW 505?
VW 505.01?
VW 506?
VW 506.01?
VW 507?
BMW LL-98?
BMW LL-01?
BMW LL-04?
MB 229.1?
MB 229.3?
MB 229.31?
MB 229.5?
MB 229.51?

How about any ACEA approvals?
A1/B1?
A3/B3?
A3/B4?
A5/B5?

Too tough?
Want easier?
Any ILSAC approvals?

How about easiest?
API?

Is Amsoil approved in any meaningful way?
(other than by Amsoil and their sales droids who apparently know little
if anything about oil approvals)

Not following the OEM warranty requirements is a benefit?

A tremendous amount of DISinformation.

it's already been proven that the wind resistance in the bed is of no
consequence. Running with the tailgate down only destroys the back of
the bed. The covers are functional only for security or cosmetics. Not
for mpg increase.
