    Confidence inspiriing
    By  KIRK,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Harpswell, ME   on  January 07, 2024
    After being in transition for nearly a year and a half, I am finally settling down into my new home. Consequently, I have not changed my John Deere 2320 tractor oil in over a year. I've only put 40 or so hours on it but I try not to miss my annual oil change interval. Amsoil's MAX duty 5W30 motor oil has given me the confidence not to worry to much about that missed oil change. Will get to it in the next week or two. Fantastic protection/ confidence, and zero oil consumption on a Yanmar diesel with nearly 1000 hours on it.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Confusing information
    By  GEORGE,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Upstate NY  on  January 21, 2023
    I wrote Amsoil two times and two times, i received different information two times. I asked if there was any oil I could use in both my dodge ram diesel and my 2017 honda turbo hatchback. So I don't have to stock two kinds of oils. Both people wrote back different things . At first, they said this would work, then I questioned that and AMSOIL wrote back and the answer dept said this was no good for the Honda. So now IDK. I read all oil reports and Amsoil always beats everyone, but it beats me THEY do not know what i should be using. signed confused.
    Bottom Line
    No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

    I believe in this stuff!
    By  PERRY,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Gatlinburg  on  August 07, 2022
    I have used AMSOIL top grade diesel oil and the dual filter system in two GMC pickup trucks and have had no oil related problems with once per year oil changes. I have towed a 10,000 Airstream travel trailer over 200,000 miles during that time. I did regular oil analysis during the first 5 or so years, and never gol a recommendation to change the oil after 12 months of travel. I have condensed several people to make the change to a setup like mine for their tow vehicle with no complaints from any of them.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
