I'm on the side of the comments, I think this guy is full of shit. He talks about the difference between regular(mineral) oil, and synthetic oil, like they are whole different animals. They aren't, they are both made up of mostly the same additives, the prime difference, besides price, being if the engine overheats for some reason, the synthetic oil will still work and not char.

As far as the ad for 3-M Clear Bra, yes it will prevent some stone chips in the clear coat over the life of the car. But clear coat chips are easy to touch up, and the Clear Bra will be several hundred dollars to have one cut for your vehicle applied. Otherwise it will look like hell.

Stick to the manufacturer's recommendations... not the salesman, the manufacturer.
