Message	recommended oil-drain interval in a severe service category, then what number of miles does Mobil 1 15w50 fall back down to when used in a severe service category? I would hate to find out the hard way. Had too many people tell me they'll never use Mobil 1 again. But hey that's just me. To each his own. I hope the fine print on the bottle is of some use to somebody :)
