AGCO Auto defines "synthetic" oil

[Ed_Flecko]

AGCO Automotive Corporation hosts the radio show titled the "Automotive Hour" with Louis Altazan and co-host Brian Terry ( http://www.agcoauto.com/content/Radio ). I like to listen to their podcasts, and I was listening to an old recording dated from January 18, 2014 ( http://www.agcoauto.com/podcast/2014-01-18.mp3 ).

At approximately 37:40 into the podcast, a caller asks, "What's the difference is between synthetic oil and regular oil?"

*I* think there answer is pretty accurrate, but I thought I'd share this for your entertainment value.

I'm not aware of a transcript (but that's not saying there isn't one).

Apart from the guy confusing Group III for Group IV, he says nowadays synthetics are marketing because you never know what's inside a quart container, if PAO, Esters or Group IV (III)...

I think earlier in the podcast I heard a cardboard endcap discussion.

I listen to their podcasts as well. Very knowledgeable and unbiased; I've learned a lot from Louis and Brian.
