Valvoline NexGen

Anyone use this? I was doing some reading and it sounds like a great oil that is only 50% new oil. What are others thoughts? Valvoline states it is equal to or better than regular oil.

A remanufactured oil is capable of being better than virgin oil, that is, if it is submitted to the complete procedures. It gets an additional effort at removing most of the really bad stuff.

Specifically, I have seen no comparative data on the Valvoline NexGen, but I believe they are putting it through the same complete steps that they do their virgin products, so, yes, it is capable of being as good or better than their traditional virgin petroleum group 2 products.

No, I haven't used it, nor do I plan on it.

I haven't figured out if it is just better for our resources or why I should buy it. It was the exact same price as the normal oil I buy is, so I guess I was expecting a price break to make me lean towards purchasing the re-manufactured oil.
