Re: Why use an oil which "may" be inferior?

Point well taken but I wasn't thinking about putting cheap oil (e.g., Walmart-brand synthetic) in the engine.
Just wondering how, say, regular Mobil 1 5W30 would work compared to 0W40 Euro-spec. I can get the 5W30 in a 5-qt jug for around $24, etc. and we know the price of Euro-spec 0W40.
For the record, I haven't done this and I'll stick with the 0W40 until I know for sure alternates are OK but I wanted to ask the question. Maybe I'll check 'Bob is the oil guy' for some test data.
