Most of my customers were Mobil 1 customers as the facts still remain, even though our certified tests prove we are better, my customers still have an increase in mileage, performance and I get several calls where customers were using oil and after switching to AMSOIL this problem decreased noticeably.
Mobil's new Mobil Clean 500 and 7500 mile oils are primarily a run of the mill engine oil and only offered to installers, where AMSOIL supplies to retail outlets, do-it-yourself users and preferred customers enjoy cost saving and performance solutions for all their equipment such as differential, transmission, compressors, hydrostatic machinery, motorcycles, bike chains, 5th wheel hubs, and 100's of other units requiring specific lubricants.
The new Mobil 1 Extended Performance is not currently API licensed because it does not meet the fuel economy requirements of GF-4 (measured by the Sequence VIB engine test). AMSOIL's lower cost XL Series is licensed and meets the requirements of GL-4. It also costs less and offers the end user improved efficiency.
You won't find large accounts such as the Texas DPS, power stations, concrete companies or city governments who are working to reduce costs using Mobil 1 products if they have had any experience with AMSOIL and our service we provide.
Al Amatuzio June 2005 - "Spread the word. Talk about AMSOIL and all of our accomplishments. Let people know that despite Mobil's recent advertising campaign, we were the company that introduced synthetic motor oil and pioneered extended drain intervals. Mobil is not "the oil that changed motor oil". They're the oil that copied the oil that changed motor oil, and that would be AMSOIL!
Now here's a statement from Al Amatuzio (founder) that explains it pretty well.
"As most of you are aware. Mobil 1 was introduced after AMSOIL had paved the way for synthetic motor oils back in the '70's. When it was introduced it caused great concern among many of our Dealers. But in my Presidents Message at the time, I assured everyone that having Mobil 1 on the market would only help us sell more oil. Mobil confirmed everything we had been saying about synthetic oils, and our products and claims instantly became more credible.
Since then, we have always been compared to Mobil 1. When people think of synthetic motor oil, they think of AMSOIL and Mobil 1, not the other Johnny-come-lately's that have come on the market more recently. I have always said that Mobil 1 is a good motor oil, because compared to the run-of-the-mill motor oils on the market, it is. I have also always said that AMSOIL motor oil is better, again, because it is. Mobil makes their oils to run at normal drain intervals while we make ours for extended drain intervals, and therein lies the difference. Their oils don't have to be as good as ours, so they are not.
To prove that point, we ran a number of comparative tests on our 5W-30 and Mobil 1 SuperSyn 5W-30. The test results are published in this Action News, and they confirm what I have been saying all along. AMSOIL makes a better motor oil.
These test results show significant differences between the oils. Look at the results of the NOACK Volatility Test. Which oil is going to last longer in service? Look at the difference in Total Base Numbers. Again, which oil is going to provide the longest lasting protection? Look at the Four Ball Wear Test. Which oil will protect against engine wear better? In every category we tested, AMSOIL proved superior. Lower pour point, higher flash and fire points, AMSOIL tested best.
So when I hear claims that nothing outperforms Mobil 1, I have to say "wrong!". They may have good slogans and marketing hype, but when it comes to superior performance, I say nothing beats AMSOIL!"
To personally demonstrate the difference order one of our oil analysis kits and compare your used Mobil 1 at 5000 miles with AMSOIL at any mileage. For three decades, not a single proven case of oil related failure in an engine covered by the warranty! When you use AMSOIL you spend less.
Try the AMSOIL 0W30 which has a 35,000 mile or 1-year guarantee. If you stay with the 3000-5000 oil change you will not; have high temperature protection, save gas, save money, reduce wear, eliminate engine deposits, maximum filter life.
It's important to point out the TBN. What matters that this above example does not show is the TBN once the oil has been in use for 10,000 miles. I have done independent analysis as seen elsewhere on this site at extended mileage and AMSOIL stays consistent thus the Guarantee! See Mobil 1 Data Sheets and compare yourself. Have your Mobil 1 Analyzed at 10,000 miles and see for yourself where the viscosity remains. Our oil analysis kits are $24.00 post paid. You just drop in the mail and "Oil Analyzers" in Ohio will mail you back the test results right away..
