Ha thats good for a laugh. Synthetic oil is NOT going to reduce our dependence on fossil fuel.
Thats a good example of the logic used by SO proponents. But you are right to make up for the increased cost you will have to extend the oil change interval past what the owners manual calls for. Walmart conventional oil is going for $12 for five quarts while their synthetic oil is going for $22 for....four quarts? Maybe its five. So you better plan on about doubling your oil change interval using synth. I am sorry to sound so nasty its just the facts...
