Get the Mobil 1 synthetic 5-w30. If you check around you can probably find a sale on the 5 quart jug. RH posted about a sale going on at O'Reily's, and Autozone usually has a similar sale where you can get the 5 quart jug plus two additional quarts for right around $30.

My thoughts exactly! It's all I've even used in the past 10-12yrs...

That's not entirely accurate... My 2005 w/o MDS says 5W20, and thats what I run.

Fram filters are the worst filters u can use other than no name ones. Why did that oil change cost $50?? Mine was all mobil 1 and it cost $39-nothing was on sale either
