AMSOIL synthetic motor oils provide customers with the best
of both worlds. Their premium quality provides superior protection and
performance for their expensive vehicle investments, while their extended drain
capabilities provide cost effectiveness that translates into immediate savings.
Although a 3,000-mile oil change using conventional motor oil is initially less
expensive than an AMSOIL oil change, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils save customers
money in the long run. As customers struggle with high vehicle expenses and
gasoline prices, they can effectively cut the expense of 3,000-mile standard
oil changes from their budgets by extending their drain intervals with AMSOIL
synthetic motor oils.
Saving Money at the Quick Lube
The following examples illustrate
how quick lube customers save money by using AMSOIL products:
Quick Lube Example 1
A quick lube customer who drives
15,000 miles per year and purchases 3,000-mile oil changes must visit the quick
lube five times per year:
Conventional Oil Change Price:
$32.49 x 5 = $162.45
The quick lube customer pays $32.49
per 3,000 miles.
A quick lube customer who drives
15,000 miles per year and purchases 7,500-mile AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oil changes
must visit the quick lube twice per year:
AMSOIL XL Oil Change Price: $64.95
x 2 = $129.90
The quick lube customer pays $25.98
per 3,000 miles and saves $32.55 per year by purchasing AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor
Oil changes, while also saving the time associated with visiting the quick lube
an additional three times per year.
Quick Lube Example 2
A quick lube customer who drives
30,000 miles per year and purchases 3,000-mile oil changes must visit the quick
lube 10 times per year:
Conventional Oil Change Price: $32.49
x 10 = $324.90
The quick lube customer pays $32.49
per 3,000 miles.
A quick lube customer who drives
30,000 miles per year and purchases 7,500-mile AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oil changes
must visit the quick lube four times per year:
AMSOIL XL Oil Change Price: $64.95
x 4 = $259.80
The quick lube customer pays $25.98
per 3,000 miles and saves $65.10 per year by purchasing AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor
Oil changes, while also saving the time associated with visiting the quick lube
an additional six times per year.
Saving Money as a Do-It-Yourselfer
Further demonstrating customers’ desires to
save money and cut expenses, recent statistics indicate the do-it-yourself
(DIY) market is healthy and growing. In fact, despite perceptions to the
contrary, it’s been healthy and growing for the past decade. The compounded
annual growth rate for the DIY market over the past decade was 3.9 percent,
while the growth rate for the do-it-for-me (DIFM) market was also 3.9 percent
over the same time period. If the economy continues to worsen, experts predict
growth of the DIY market will begin to outpace the growth of the DIFM market as
an increasing number of people decide to either perform their own automotive
maintenance or have someone other than a professional technician work on their
vehicles.
The following examples illustrate
how do-it-yourself customers save money by using AMSOIL products:
Do-It-Yourself Example 1
A do-it-yourself customer who drives 25,000 miles per year and
uses conventional motor oil and filters for 3,000-mile drain intervals must
change his or her oil eight times per year (*comparisons based on a five-quart
oil capacity):
Conventional 5W-30 Motor Oil
40 quarts needed for 25,000 miles*
@ $3/qt. x 40 = $120
8 Standard Oil Filters @ $6 per filter
x 8 = $48
TOTAL = $168
The do-it-yourself customer pays
$21 per 3,000 miles. A do-it-yourself customer who drives 25,000 miles per year
and uses AMSOIL synthetic motor oil and high-performance Ea Oil Filters for
25,000-mile drain intervals must only change his or her oil once per year
(Note: AMSOIL synthetic motor oils may be used for 25,000 miles with
conventional oil filters, but filters must be changed at filter manufacturer’s
recommended change interval):
AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil -

5 quarts needed for 25,000 miles* @

oil and Ea Filters, while also saving the time and work associated with
changing oil an additional seven times per year.

In addition to the money-saving benefits of extended drain intervals,
AMSOIL synthetic lubricants effectively improve fuel economy by allowing moving
parts to move more freely, using less energy and creating less friction than
when conventional lubricants are used. In fact, customers can achieve a 2 to 5
percent increase in fuel economy by switching to synthetic lubricants, while
many AMSOIL customers report even larger gains.
