Well believe it. Your beloved Exxon-Mobil products do not have 2016 PDS's.

That will be next thing to "obsess" over.

Say what? Did you fall from a tree and hit your head? NG and the OCOD are in 2 different classes. The NG is a great filter to use for ANY kind of OCI. The OCOD is good for target practice because it's orange and can be seen at pretty far distances.

Not to sound like a wise guy but i do believe it because before we made the deal at my brothers shop we had a copy from the distributor... I won't call Mobil Exxon my beloved because although Mobil is a decent quality lubricant Pennzoil served me well for over 35 years..

I think the 5w30 Mobil High Mileage is a little on the thin side of 30

Please elaborate on the thin side as inquiring minds would like a education

the Mobil High Mileage according to their pds is on the thin side of the 5w30 spectrum for high mileage oils especially compared to Pennzoil High Mileage or Castrol High Mileage ... Also if you put the Mobil High Mileage 5w30 in a freezer and compare it with the Pennzoil conventional also in the freezer the Mobil High Mileage looks a little thinner even my wife saw it.. Not exactly science but visually it was obvious..
Try it..

Well, about 6000 miles on right now. Down a bit over half a quart it looks like, but most of that is likely from my leaking oil cooler gasket that's getting replaced when it is not winter anymore.

Have a 600 mile trip in April and a 2,000+ trip in May planned...I'll likely be changing the oil near the April trip to fix the gasket leak, it's getting irritating as the wind blows the oil spray onto the exhaust and smells delightful.
