I didn't say MORE additives are better. I said better quality. And yes Amsoil does get some base stocks from Mobil, but that does not mean there aren't sources of better base stocks that Mobil..
This is unknown to me even when I was an Amsoil dealer. Please elaborate on how Amsoil additives are better quality than Mobil. Are there any empirical data available for verification?

Actually you are incorrect. Amsoil does not require a bypass filter for extended drains, or even a EaO full flow filter. Well maybe Mobil could make any oil they want. That's a bit silly. Jet oil. OK..
For vehicle prone to sludge Amsoil is no better than OEM recommend oil per Amsoil guidelines. For longer OCI then Amsoil oil filter must be used according the Amsoil tech line.

Well please don't ignore my words....I wrote "Amsoil has a more rounded lubrication line available to the general public..." Actually you might be surprised what oils Amsoil makes and for whom. But I have no doubt Mobil makes more industrial lubes, but that wasn't my point..
Mobil has more rounded lubrication line available to the general public "worldwide" as I have posted above. Mobil has products basically for any thing that move, whereas Amsoil is mainly land and water based machineries. With that said, I just bought four gallons of Amsoil Torque Drive ATF for my Chevy because no one else is making a Transynd compatible fluid except Amsoil and Transynd. I am sure in a couple of year this will change, but for now Amsoil got my money.

True enough, but some NAPA's, True Value, and yes Auto Dealers sell Amsoil. Sure I don't dispute Amsoil is slightly more expensive. Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, England aren't in the USA last time I checked and you can get Amsoil there..
Even for a city state such as Singapore, locating an Amsoil dealer is not easy nor convenient. They stock mostly motorcycle oils and very limited weight of PCMO. Only one dealer regularly carry PCMO oil that I am aware of. Every thing else has to be ordered and wait. It is even worst in Malaysia because of the island hopping situation. If people have problem getting Amsoil locally here in the US what make you think it will be easier oversea?
