I'm trying this oil out in our Toyota 4x4 that we mostly haul, tow and plow with.

, but some of the new super-high-tech, anti-friction, extended drain interval, fuel economy oils are not using moly.

for example, this oil is specified for up to 30k drain intervals all the while increasing fuel economy up to 10%.

A5/B5 Stable, stay-in-grade oil intended for use at extended drain intervals in high performance gasoline and car + light van diesel engines designed to be capable of using low-friction, low-viscosity oils with a High temperature/High shear (HT/HS) rate viscosity of 2.9 to 3.5 mPa.

These oils may be unsuitable for use in some engines. Consult owner manual or handbook if in doubt.

 
Yep, thanks for sharing the Elf analysis. Where does one purchase Elf oils and how much for the Elf Evolution?

You need to capitalize and punctuate your sentences. If you pre-read your posts you may notice its just one long run on sentence.

No it should not knock.

I would suggest however if you would like some more diverse input to post your question in the passenger car motor oil section. If you elaborate on the question and supply more detailed information about the engine and oil the responses will be greatly enhanced.
