 The "facts" of oil performance are buried somewhere in reports by indpendant and not so independant labs. Everyone is free to pick the "facts" that they choose to go by.  In the 60's I changed oil every 3,000 and engines were still sludged up. Now oils are so much different....the EPA mandating changes in additives for green concerns, is the main source of reduction of oil's effectiveness (trade offs).
