I'm having a little complication understanding this statement. I am also trying to understand why the change at the dealership and then the change at home. The cost of an oil change at the dealership, (IF you want the Mobil 1) is more, but then again, you paid for the oil that you brought home to put in your truck. The cost of it (even at Walmart) is somewhat significant.

I would also support that with the thought in one'sw mind that the engine is getting broke-in, that the driving style will become more aggressive.
