I have 2 Jeeps with way over 300K km on them, one with 385 and they are
still going strong on basic 10W30 oil. No particular brand loyalty
either except for the local chain store brands.

Rotella T in the diesels, and Valvoline/Havoline/Kendall in the gassers. I
add about a 1/2 to 1qt of Dexron to the oil 50 miles or so before an oil
change. The high detergent helps clean, I think.
