Just remember, a salesman is always gonna be a salesman, even with LE. Just like anybody else their synthetic stuff is gonna be more expensive than their regular stuff and unless your application requires synthetic, I say go with their 'regular' stuff, it's just as good. I don't know any of my customers running synthetic and I've told ya'll the expereinces they've had so far. The Detroit in my Freightliner has a recommended change interval of 15,000 miles. With the "regular" LE stuff I can get way more than that with no problem as long as I do a normal filter change. It isn't cost effective with a small sump but with a larger engine all you'd have to do is pull a sample for analysis at a normal change interval and keep doing that til the results said it was worn out. Shorten that just a little and then make that the change interval. Like everything saving a dollar costs a little in the beginning but in the end you make it all back.
