Each excel a bit better in certain areas but generally they all kick ass in comparison.

I go with Amsoil because they have been around the longest and I only like changing my oil every 7.500 miles or so.
That link says you can go 25k !!!

But Mobil 1 makes their oils to run at “normal” drain intervals (3,000 or 5,000 miles) while we make AMSOIL for extended drain intervals of 25,000-miles or 12-months, whichever comes first. Mobil 1 SuperSyn doesn’t have to be as good as ours, so it’s not. And it’s not as economical as ours.

I ran nothing but Mobil1 in my 00GT since the day I bought it until a month or so before I got rid of it.Then I switched to Royal Purple and the gas milage was way better...I never tried Amsoil but might with the turbo setup.
