It is clear that the marketing clowns are running the M1 show. It is all
about hype (for the harley crowd) I am seriously thinking about trying the
NAPA or JohnnyB's oil.
Mobil had people that knew how to make GREAT oil, but hadn't a clue
about sales/marketing. Exxon has seldom spent even a penny on making a
superior product, but would spend as much as needed to sell what they
had. What is happening is what I suspected would happen when they bought
Mobil. The next move could be to cheapen down the cost of making the
Mobil line (they haven't YET). I'm afraid they'll introduce a line of
group III oils (or dilute down the Mobil 1 line) soon if they can't make
a big enough profit margin on their group IV/V product(s).
