    Yes, synthetic is an upcharge at my dealer (they use Mobil 1 5w-30). They usually have me out in 45 minutes or less with tire rotation, quick wash, etc. Why not take advantage? If anything goes wrong they assume any liability.

    You couldn't pay me to let a dealership employee wash my truck...I'd rather leave it dirty.

    I wonder if they really use Mobil 1 or just their regular oil and still claim that they used synthetic. How can we tell?
