Good info from everybody.... I think I'll pick up a case of Mobil 1 when I go to Costco tonight. I used to use Castrol Syntec in my '90 Integra which after 120K miles never burned an ounce of oil, those were the days. I've switched to using Syntec Blend in my Rodeo when I saw $7 evaporating from my wallet every 1000 miles. Hopefully the Mobil 1 gives me enough peace-of-mind to keep buying it.
About those additives, I have used Prolong in the past and would believe it has a positive effect on my engines, perhaps saved me tons of $$$ once. Since having this Rodeo, and its oil consuming tendencies, I have stopped putting it in. Does anybody know of any objective articles on the subject of additives? I anticipate just switching to the Mobil 1 will justify not putting anymore Prolong in the case.... oooh , but that gold box is just so spiffy
