Totally serious. Long-haul truck/fleet operators go 150-175K miles on one oil change using the Delvac1/Turbo diesel oils. Their sumps hold 10 gallons, but if you do the math, you can see how this oil could go that long easily on a gas motor without the soot load. Combined with 3X the OEM filtering area, its almost a sure thing.
The Delvac1/Turbo diesel Mobil 1 is a true group IV synthetic base stock with a TBN of 12, so it is basically built to be an extreme performance/endurance oil. It is far superior to the extended performance in additive level and content. And it is SL rated for gasoline engines. If more people knew about how good this stuff is, nobody would pay the extra money for the extended performance (which is no longer even group IV).
Like I said, warrantee is over, so extended drains can now happen without dealer bickering.
