I use Penzoil Ultra and Mopar filters only
Penzoil Platinum is good oil as well and available at Walmart the Mopar filter we use is also available at most Walmarts

For whatever reason, I have not been able to find Pennzoil Ultra in the big jugs in my area for a LONG time. That used to be my go-to oil (if good enough for Ferrari, good enough for my cars). The first oil change on my D was using Valvoline full synthetic.

i use pennzoil Ultra 5w-20 full syn and K&N PS-2010 or HP-2010 (both same but the HP has a wrench off nut on it for self changes if u have no oil filter tool at home)

for the price I think the KN filter is unbeatable ($6 for the PS) ans I dont believe there is a better oil available today then the Penny Ultra (also its mopar factory oil)

i have yet to see a day where my oil was even the least bit used looking or smelling or burnt up or missing at varying mileage (between 3k to 5K typically I change it)

amazon has best prices for both items that i could find

Not anymore. At least not here. Per Walmart's website it's no longer available either. Same for Autozone and others. Perhaps Pennzoil stopped selling it in 5 quart jugs. And if that's the case, there's no way I'm buying it in the 1 quart containers at almost $9/quart.

I went with the Valvoline because even the local walmart didn't have Platinum available when I changed oil about a month ago. Come on Pennzoil, get your stuff together!
