Default Amsoil Vs. Mobile 1

I'm wondering if anyone is using Amsoil over Mobile 1? I have done some research but am unsure about all the additives Amsoil has in it. Any insite would be appreciated? Also Amsoil states its air filters are better than K&N.
Thanks

All the fluids in my jeep are Amsoils and also their oil filter. I have no complaints. I'm sure either will do you fine.

Default Amsoil Claims

Amsoil claims to have superior oils and lubricants compared to the leading brands. They also claim their air filters allow more CFM air flow then the leading (oiled gauze) filters with cleaner post filter air.

I kept getting dry starts and knocking with Mobil1. Switched to Amsoil. No more knocking. Haven't tried the air filter. Using K&N drop in.
