Actually, it is the worst of both worlds. Not much better than dino oil
at a much higher price! :-)

Yes, ignorance is bliss. :-)

No, there isn't, but it doesn't matter. Synthetic oils are superior to
dino oils, so they're suitable for any application where dino oils are
specified.

What is it with people that they can't take a few minutes to examine a
situation before they break out hammers, pry bars and Vice-Grips? Was
changing the bulb so critical that it had to be done RIGHT NOW? Taking
the time to do something right generally saves time and money in the
long run. Rushing rarely results in anything but more problems.

There are countless Toyota R22 engines out there with 500K* miles on them
that have never felt the agony of head removal, and never tasted Mobil1.

500K miles is a lot of oil changes, and a lot of dollars, even for dino oil.

*Idiots! If they had used Mobil1, they could have suffered with their old
pickup truck another 10 years!
