Whatever you say Mr.Stevehulbert.

I would have to agree to disagree on your assumption that a turbo vehicle wont last as long as non turbo vehicle.. lets just say, look at my fathers cummins TURBO diesel still running strong with over 300k miles not an issue with the turbo. And not to mention. I seem to be able to pull plenty 8-10k loaded bobcats up hills w/ my work truck that is an ecoboost at 2500rpm while only going 20-25 mph not 90mph. All depends what gear your in. My ecoboost gets 24 all day long with out a trailer. All depends on how you drive it.


Easy Tiger. A turbo-charged diesel is quite a bit different beast than a twin-turbo charged gasoline engine. Completely different animals. Lots of cars out there for sale with over 200k miles....good look finding one that runs with a turbo charger on it that hasn't already been completely rebuilt/repowered.

Mobil 1 primarily uses IV base stocks. It will run just fine in your ecoboost.


Wrong. Absolutely not right. It uses a basestock called Visom. Which is a highly refined Group III, or sometimes referred to as Group III+.
