To get the increased friction modifier and yet preserve some of the lubricity of a dino oil.

Sounds like it would just dilute the good qualities of both.

The ne MTL is fantastic.

...the lubricity of a dino oil.
As in: it is superiour to synthetic oil in that way?
What makes you think that?
Besides, is there any evidence the new MTF isn't dino?
