   To your point I was a Detroit owner until I bought my first Japanese sedan.   
   Had a few German sedans in between but Japanese models never broke on me.   
   As I age I don't have time for Detroit garbage nor even German complexity.   
      
   What I need now that I'm shifting from conventional to synthetic is a good   
   way to tell the quality of any two oils from just the packages in my hands.   
      
   As you can tell by now I don't get my facts out of my ass so I'm willingly   
   admitting openly that I don't yet know how to compare any two synthetics.   
      
   Do you?   
   Does anyone?   
      
   How?
