Re: What brand of Motor Oil is everyone using

Just switched to Mobile 1 from Imperial (Exxon?) . Changed @ 24km then redid @32km. Dealer thought I was NUTS, but, Ive had issues with synthetic shyte. In the cold weather I'm already convinced that this 5w30 WORKS! My only concern is that when, after 10k down the road the truck "feels" sluggish.Then gets better. It's my seat of the pants thing, but I've been a licensed mechanic since '67. I listen to my senses, and yes they ALL WORK! So far my gas mileage is up by 10%! Can't complain about that. I will keep every body informed, including analyses readings. Thats why my dealer thinks I'm NUTS!!!
By the way Mobile 1 @ my dealership is $8.80/litre Canadian. Still using Nissan filter strictly because of flow characteristics and cleaning attributes.
