    Your money is not at risk. You're advocating stepping over someone else's dollar to pick up a hypothetical dime.

    Thank you for pointing this out.
    I re-read my post, and no, I did not forget anything.
    Just comparing engine oils with different viscosities.

    The discussion was not about conventional vs modern, whatever these terms mean.

    If you want to turn the subject of the discussion to conventional vs modern, you will first have to define conventional and modern.
    Is it mineral vs synthetic, CK-4 vs FA-4, or new oil vs oil out of a can that was on the shelf for 20 years?

    @ Caesar (and others)
    Here's an article from 2011 you might enjoy, explains better than I can the triple road trains and the difference between Canada and USA, also takes a dig at the American trucking industry.

    Saskatchewan to try out triple LCVs
