Why American oil companies cant relax
U N 1 ON OIL SER VICE
1* In January, 1946, Union Oil Company intro
duced a new motor oil. This oil—New Triton—
was so high in quality you had to change it
only 2 times a year. In an industry where 1,000
mile oil drains had long been an established
practice, it created quite a sensation. So much
so that you might have expected us to rest on
our oars for a while.
2. But 18 months later four new cars with
sealed crankcases rolled out of Los Angeles to
begin a road test on a still newer motor oil—
Royal Triton. During the test all four cars were
driven up and down the Pacific Coast until each
had covered a distance of 30,000 miles. Make-up
oil was added as needed, but no oil was changed.
3. For a distance equivalent to three years
average driving, the crankcases stayed sealed.
At the end of the test, the motors were torn
down and inspected by automotive engineers.
The result? Royal Triton came through with
flying colors—gave absolute protection in every
one of the motors for the entire 30,000 miles.

4. A few weeks later the results were an
nounced to the public and the West had another
great new petroleum product—Royal Triton
Motor Oil. Now with the marketing advantage
we already had with New Triton it might seem
logical to ask why we didn’t hold Royal Triton
off the market until the public demanded some
thing better.
5* The answer is that we happen to be in a
highly competitive industry. We don’t have all
the motor oil business by any means. There are
399 other refiners in the United States who
make motor oil and some 20,000 wholesale dis
tributors who market it. Consequently, the
incentive to get new business with an improved
product is constantly with us.
6* In fact, this incentive is the driving force
behind our whole free, competitive, American
system. By offering a reward in the form of
more business or more wages to anyone who
can “build abetter mousetrap,”it constantly
encourages the introduction of new and better
products—products that have given the Ameri
can people the highest standard of living in
the world.
