Synthetic Oil in Tractors and Trucks

[dmccarty]

Amway, and it sounds like Amsoil, are MLM(Multi Level Marketing) organizations/companies, what ever you wish to call them, and are not supposed to run out of money.

Pyramid/Ponzi scams are different.

In a Pyramid/Ponzi scam the first people into the scam make money off of the people getting into the scam later on. The money gets cycled until it runs out because not enough new people feed the scam or the scam is busted. A Ponzi scheme will fail. It has to fail since the "profits" that are promised can only go to a few people based on how much money is pulled in from newer members/investors. The more members/investor the more money that has to be pulled in from new members/investors. Eventually there are not enough new members/investors to pay off the earlier member/investors so the whole thing falls apart.

Its like the Social Security system.

Rotella which is loaded with how much moly ?

?? No idea?? But..since "moly" is used in about 90% of new engine assembly...on every bearing..bearing journal......anywhere that friction can happen ( even filled in the faces of piston rings)...why do I knew to "worry" over how much "moly" Rotella T has? MILLIONS of users with no complaints cant be that far wrong!!! I use Delo in my $$$ engine...its what I started with...it also is a good oil...and I dont switch oils like some do "underwear". If "it" works..I stick with it...no reason not to.

My brother in laws company which has a fleet of concrete pumping trucks worth 500,000 dollars and up each uses good old fashioned rotella non synthetic in everything and is very pleased with that. I am going to use rotella synthetic because I like to spend money

kenmac - I wouldn't worry about moly in Rotella. It has from close to none to 0. These are all VOA's (virgin oil analysis), ie. new/unused.

New CJ-4 15W/40

Don't have a copy of the new CJ-4 10W/30 VOA but the one I saw showed 0 moly.

DieselPower,

If you keep putting out verifiable facts, how are we going to have an argument?

DP: I gather from thse posted reports ( that are on Rotella..??..correct??) that just MAYBE it isnt the "trash motor oil" that "some" claim it to be??
