Royal Purple

Can anyone explain why it costs $2 per quart more than Mobil 1? I think it is just a waste of money otherwise. Is it that much better?

Because it's fuckin purple man...Nothing cooler than pouring purple stuff in your motor...thats why i use it

My MPG went up the first time I used it. 6 MPG. No difference in driving styles and it was all highway miles. I use mobile 1 full synthetic now though. That shits to expensive.

It's only $2/quart more. Even if you change every 3 months that's what... about an extra $40 in oil over the course of an entire year? Royal purple is good for well over 3000+ miles anyways, 3 oil changes/year should be enough.

Lots of people claim to have seen anywhere from 2-6mpg increase in milage, so it's up to you.

Your best bet is to give it a shot and make your own decision.

alright so increases mpg, ill believe that. im not the kind of guy to keep track of gas mileage, though...maybe ill try it next fill. thanks guys.
