    That comment belongs in the conspiracy theory thread along with Birds Aren't Real.

    When/how does the extra molybdenum affect anti-wear? Is it similar to a high mileage oil in that it will run for 10,000/15,000 miles instead of the recommended 5000 mile interval change. Guess what I’m saying is, if you change every 5000 miles does it even matter at this interval, does the extra molybdenum have a positive or neutral influence with 5000 mile synthetic oil change?
    It’s almost Friday, so cut me some slack eh.:crapstorm:

    I bet you heard that from Elvis Presley. I have it from a solid source he’s alive and living in a trailer park in Ranlo, NC.

    Do what you want, but there's a few logical steps missing in your argument, and that's a different engine.

    Toyota thinks it is important enough to have in their proprietary formula, good enough for me. :notsure:

    I hear that, just curious, what is your interval change with TMO, are you sticking with 5000 or trusting it to protect beyond?

    I’m not looking to be swayed, I’m ride or die at 5000 miles, just humoring my curiosity is all, thanks.

    I change it daily, but only because it seems risky to change while I’m still driving.

    Not all molybdenum formulations are the same. Interesting read attached.

    Who the fuck are you? What the fuck gives you the right to tell me to talk to my therapist? You didn’t serve with me so don’t think that because you hide behind a screen it gives you the right to judge people on that level or even to think that you are god like enough to tell someone that they need to get therapy. Guess you didn’t get a clue by looking at my screen name?

    I think that'd be cool! I was running Mobil 1 0W-20 AFE but unfortunately couldn't find it for awhile around me so I ordered Liqui-Moly 0W-20 Special Tec Asia/America. I'd love to see how they compare

    I don't drive all that much so I change it around 5-6k.
