33:45 they take 5000 mile samples and talk oil. One guy is skeptical it lasts 25,000 miles and describes the variety of conditions the oil will be put through. The other mentions mobil 1 chemists told them not to look at this as if its the same oil, its totally different or something along those lines
 
If this was filmed a year or 2 ago, wouldnt this ‘new oil’ be the Mobil 1 Advanced Clean ( can’t remember name right now) that they just came out with that we are already talking about??
These things take a while from filming, to editing, to releasing….

No this is the new extended performance formula. They just changed it to 25,000 miles and i verified the formula change by the new revision number on the back. Now we need a VOA with oxidation and a lake speed video for some FTIR
 
Hmm,it takes a long time and effort to develop a engine oil, looks like more if any speculation. perhaps time will tell?.
 
“No name at the time of this film”… this has to be Advanced Clean right?
No its the new extended performance formula since that one is 25k miles and advanced clean is 20k miles. I also saw xoverland posted on their facebook page that they used

"Were we doubters? Maybe. Were we proven wrong? Definitely. 25,000 miles on a single oil change.

For the entire Milestones expedition, our fleet ran Mobil 1 Extended Performance motor oil from start to finish. That meant no scheduled oil changes across 25,000 miles of border crossings, rough roads, and remote terrain.

Fewer stops. Less gear. More time experiencing new cultures and places.

From mile one to mile 25,000, Mobil 1 helped keep our engines protected so we could stay focused on the adventure."

As I have watched the series I have wondered about them adding oil to replace what they sampled. Are they also changing the filter? What’s the unseen stuff.

They don’t own the trucks, so they really don’t care about the longevity. Getting paid to test was smart though.
