You posted up the request for a test mule (with certian criteria) and I've stepped up. I want you to remove the criteria that doesn't really matter in this test. Let's test your product and put an end to any doubt anyone would have about using the Amzoil line.
Personally Amzoil dealers are just selling a product, they don't think ANY other oil is as good as or even better than their product. I'm just tired of all the Amzoil sales propganda, here's my chance to make my point OR I'll post a full retraction on my opinion.
Basically to ANY Amzoil dealer put up or shut up.
Well that will be accomplished in this test among other things.
As far as Amsoil dealers thinking that Amsoil is the best only testing can prove that. I don't agree with all dealers tactics either.
I will tell you this about this Amsoil dealer. I would be a complete fool if I thought Amsoil is for everybody. Its not the end all of oils and any Amsoil dealer that tells you it so is off his or her rocker! It is a top flight synthetic in the market place. It has been refined over 35 years of testing and use. It can and will save money in the long run but it has to be used to its potential to make the savings worth while to most people. Some people use it for other reasons other than extending oil changes. It is known to be one of the best cold pour point oils in the market place. Making it a great choice in extreme cold climates.
I don't like to argue with people over the great oil debate. I like to use and present the facts to help those doing reasearch for their personal use and to show the potential for anybody to save money and time. Then its up to the consumer to make a decision. If it goes with Amsoil then I would love to earn that person's business and if it doesn't then that is ok too. Each and every one of us have to feel comfortable with our choices and I respect that.
I am considering you for the test Heavy! My only concern is that since you might be an Amsoil hater would you give this test a fair shake with an open mind and follow through with the testing at 3k intervals and take it to 15k if Blackstone labs says its ok to do so.
This could blow up in my face also but thats why I wanted the 6.0L. I want the toughest case to work with and then I will have the knowledge going forward that Amsoil can or can't tame the 6.0L. After that its up to the consumers to decide that Amsoil can help them with their 6.0L. I also think that since the 7.3L isn't as hard on oil that this test will certainly translate to other engines with better results than what we come up with on the 6.0L.
