mobil 1 truck oil .. new .... good?
i was wondering today in wall mart looking for some stuff and i spotted this in the distance :

i knwo there have been countless threads about which oil to use but i was wondering if any of you know anything about it ?
from what i gathered from the REFORMULATED OIL THREAD ... the "standards are as follows"
API P (ppm) Zn (ppm) B (ppm) Mo (ppm) Ca (ppm) Mg (ppm) Na (ppm) Total Detergents
SE-SJ 1301 1280 151 357 1936 293 214 2443
CI-4 1150 1374 83 80 2642 199 2840
SL 994 1182 133 273 2347 109 22 2479
CJ-4 819 1014 26 2075 7 2082
SM 770 939 127 122 2135 13 139 2287
and this oil,accroding to M1 site , meets/exceeds a few of these .. amongst which ... CI-4 ( 1150/1374 (P/Zn) ) ..so does this mean that it`s ZDDP concentration is sufficient ?
thx
in any case , my new rebuild has ~ 2000 kms on it and im going to change from GTX 20/50 to Royal Purple 10-30 . but i was wondering ... could this be an alternative ?
thx
