Castrol Syntec, 10W30 Synthetic, 7500 miles and a new filter each time.

Found out wallyworld (walmart) has the 5Qt bottles for a lot less than
local auto stores. synthetic saves a bit but dino juice saves a lot.
They have a store brand "" dunno how good it

FYI (no real order)

Store Brand Qt $ea $/Qt
Walmart Supertech syn 1 .97 .97
Walmart Supertech syn 5 11.88 2.38
Walmart Syntec mix 5 12.22 2.44
Walmart Syntec mix 1 2.72 2.72
AutoZone Quakerstate syn 1 2.89 2.89
Walmart Mobile1 syn 5 23.82 4.76
Walmart Mobile1 syn 1 4.88 4.88
Walmart Castrol syn 5 19.88 3.98
Walmart Castrol syn 1 4.72 4.72
AutoZone Castrol syn 1 5.19 5.19
AutoZone Mobile1 syn 1 5.29 5.29
