Unstoppable Stories: Texas Transportation Company
Texas-based transportation company saves more than 500 labor hours thanks to Mobil Delvac™
A transportation company that’s been in business for more than three decades had a clear mission – make sure it can continue carrying 40,000-plus shipments across the United States and abroad with safe and dependable operations. To improve upon its long tradition of reliable service, the company wanted to find ways to keep its trucks on the road for longer, increasing uptime and maximizing fuel economy. The company’s Detroit Diesel engines required oil drain intervals every 50,000 miles, but with Mobil Delvac’s lubrication strategy, they were able to extend drain intervals to 70,000 miles, saving them over $700,000 per year.

The Mobil Delvac team recommended the company switch to Mobil Delvac™ Extreme 10W-30 high performance diesel engine oil in order to increase fleet availability and enhance overall reliability.
Formulated with a boosted additive system, Mobil Delvac™ Extreme 10W-30 provides excellent wear protection and oxidation stability to help operators improve performance.
Mobil Delvac Extreme 10W-30 achieve a fuel economy benefit of 3%, allowing the company's Freightliners to save 7,100 metric tons of CO2 and 229,500 gallons of fuel annually.
After implementing Mobil Delvac Extreme 10W-30 within its fleet, the benefits were obvious. The company was able to extend oil drains from 50,000 to 70,000 miles and save more than 500 labor hours in required oil changes every year. In doing so, the fleet was able to keep its trucks on the road for longer, while freeing up time for its technicians to spend on other productive work. Now that is unstoppable performance.
