Very impressive!
Not sure, but I don’t think so. Probably mostly city driving.
It's very rare you see Mobil 1 thicken, and even in this instance with 18k on the oil, it remained in grade. Now you could speculate that during this interval it dropped temporarily into the 7cSt range, but even still it's a solid 8.4cSt. Another observation is that SN/SP level additives are clearly sufficient at providing very good wear protection. I have not seen any evidence at all that oils that are highly additized show lower wear. For older engines that's a different story.

Polar opposite of the Honda report, this is a fantastic showing for this oil in an application that's conducive to its use for longer drain intervals.

Darn good oil! (As you've shown here) Thanks for the link. I use that version in my Onan Generator for the time being.Mobil 1™ Extended Performance 0W-20 | Mobil™ Motor Oils

Even more impressive then. I was just thinking >1000 mi per month probably meant a decent amount of highway miles.
