and dont forget that will be 7 quarts of that expensive stuff in the hemi... it is getting close to time for the first oil change in my 2003 hemi and i am thinking about starting to use royal purple. i am wondering if anyone knows of any reason not to do this. thanks. i have a 2003 ram 1500 hemi 4x4 off road that i switched over to mobil 1 at 1k miles. also had a 2001 ram 1500 5.9 4x4 off road that was switch over to mobil 1 at 1k. never any problems..i would not worry about the break-in issue.. i asked a very good motor tech man that i trust at my dealer about the oil issues he said switch to synthetic oil anytime..the high priced performance vehicles come with mobil 1 from the factory. .
