@ Bruce - interesting info.
FYI, the 1st commercially available fully synthetic Motor Oil was offered by Motul in 1947.
Motul, while considered a French Co. was actually a US company and a spin-off of Standard Oil (due to regulatory requirements) and was based in NYC until the 1930's when a french family who owned a significant share, bought out the rest of the company. They kept it in NYC until moving it's HQ to France in the mid-30's.
Though difficult to source in the US today (not impossible, just not widely available), Motul Synthetic is also a very good Oil which I believe ranks right up there with Red Line and Royal Purple.
