Synthetic Oil for Towing?
I have a 2007 Chev 2500HD 6.0L gas with 36K Are there any benifits of using say Mobil 1 5w30 synthetic for the towing season? Or is regular 5w30 just as good?

Yes they are, synthetics are better.
Many OEM's are using synthetic for the factory fill these days.
What the heck do they know? ;)
They should have consulted "Bob The Oil Guy". Must be a conspiracy somewhere .... :h
Yep, GM uses a conv/syn blend as factory fill in their 5.3 motors. NOW try to find what the percentage of that blend is (how much is conventional verses how much of the mix is synthetic). There is no industry standard ya know.
HINT-you can't find it anywhere.
