Didn't I just see this in the Ford group also?? With those two choices
thrown at me I really wouldn't care. Just so long as they meet my vehicles
requirements and type/quality. Just change it regularly with a new filter
at 3mo or 3k and your engine will appreciate it greatly. I have been using
Castrol GTX lately. Figured that since it screwed up my clutches in my
'Cycle it's gotta be slicker than the Penz I was running for 3 years. Might
as well toss it in the vehicles too.

Any ideas on running a straight weight in the summer in my truck? Like a 30
weight? I guess the single vis oils have less additives in em so they tend
to not gum/burn as multi-vis oils do. Any thoughts other then if I forget
to change it before the snow flies I will be late for work as the truck
won't turn over. :)

Later.

I suppose I would give Chevron a try, if it's about $0.89 per quart. Seems like
it usually is.

Valvoline, I like Valvoline. Good reputation. Handsomely sculpted plastic
bottles. I just got a case for $0.89/qt. after $6 rebate, plus $5 free gas
coupon, = $0.48/qt. Wow :^)
Valvoline is for your valves.
Havoline is for the haves and the have-nots.
