Canada thoughts on oil?

Almost due for my first oil change on the 2012 Sahara.
Any opinions on synthetic oils, or standard oils?

ive ran mobil1 in the v6 and amsoil and royal purple in my hemi and nothing has cleaned better than the rp. it keeps any dirt suspended in the oil and doesnt deposit it in the internals. i run rp synthetic in the engine,diffs,tcase,transmission,etc and highly recommend it.
