That is probably not true. The XL7500 Product Line is API Certified and
available in the latest grades (even for Ford's that spec 5W20). On the
other hand, it is not a "true" synthetic. It is one of the faux synthetics
like Castrol Syntec (heavily refined petroleum).
Amsoil may be great stuff, but the whole marketing scheme is a giant
turn-off. The Amsoil corporate site stays just on the right side of the
truth (everything is true if over hyped), but some of the individual dealers
who market the stuff don't have much of a grip on reality and don't mind
crossing over into the Twilight Zone when hyping the products.
