BTW, I can buy Mobil 1 for about $3.25/qt. Assuming that I get 2% better gas mileage with it, my ~20 mpg van saves about $3 of gas during the 3000 mile change interval. In other words, the cost differential between dino juice and Mobil1 is .... $16.25 (Mobil 1) - $5 (dino juice) - $3 (fuel savings) = $8. Maybe it's not so expensive after all.

Today I paid $2.69 for a gallon of gas. What's worse is that it forced me to face an ugly reality: I'm a stone-cold junkie willing to pay any price for a hit of dino juice.

Should you use synthetic oil or should use you use dino juice—regular, out-of-the-ground “mineral” oil from decomposed dinousaurs? […] Some riders feel that higher-end mineral-based oils do just as well, and certainly for a bike ridden regularly under normal conditions, dino juice will do just fine, especially if you are diligent about changing it.
