Well, if Amsoil's SSO 0w-30 can be considered "EP", it is rated beyond their normal 25k mile service internal to 35k.

"EP" in my book. If we're talking strictly Mobil1, yes, I wish Mobil1 would...

On the note of recycled or re-refined oils, I remember seeing quarts of some in an AutoZone nearby here, but can't recall the brand. It was definitely with the idea of 'environmental friendly', and...
