Amen! That's their one saving grace, the lower cost - at least when it's on sale. One side effect of the Group III stuff is that oil consumption may increase after 4-5kmi on the oil. Marshall Booth saw that repeatably with SynTec 5W-50, the engine would start to burn oil after 4-5kmi, but when the same engine was switched back to Mobil synthetics there was no such behavior - consumption remained linear up to the 7-10kmi change interval.
