I don't spend a lot of time above 5000 miles and what is Mobil 1 inferior to? I have looked at a lot of oil data and Mobil 1 is pretty good by most accounts. It isn't up there with Redline or Amsoil but it is better than most of the typical dino oils. And I think it rates better than most of the commonly available synthetics.
