Kirkland synthetic with K&N filter...
20 quarts for $70 - at $3.50 a quart it's less expensive than most standard bargain brands.

Super tech full synthetic from the Walmarks. Bought a case of Delco filters off ebay a couple years ago, use one of them.

Discuss!!!! I change my own oil, but maybe 6-8 times in my life I have just let Walmart (or whoever do it)... busy with chit or whatever... ALMOST EVERY SINGLE TIME I have had someone else do it... something goofy happens. 1) Plastic wind deflector put back on wrong and falling off later (hours wasted bitching at CS to replace). 2) Leaking or cross-treaded oil filters (How the fugg someone can mess an oil filter is beyond me). 3) Lost crush washer on the plug (slow leak). 4) Over torqued the oil filter housing on a Toyota to the point of cracking. I just can't stand the stupidity anymore... do my one wrenching. Mobil 1 or Walmart Synthetic if I don't like the car that much... they are made in the same factory anyway. More PTFE in the Mobil 1? Maybe... I don't care. My new Toyota Sienna take 0W-16... how gay is that? White Claw has a higher viscosity.

Rotella gas engine, Mobil 1.
Baldwin, Wix, Napa Gold. I've used Mobil 1 filters too when there was a package deal with the oil.
My diesels get nothing but Rotella Diesel.
There's gonna be at least one old timer talk about how theyve never had a problem with a Fram filter in 70 years of driving.,

That was 10 years ago or so, last time I let someone else change my oil.

How in the fugg can they do chit like that... it's a fugging oil change... simply unreal... and these bastards breath the same air as us... I might actually have to start wear a mask...

Mobil 1 full synthetic 0w20, with a Wix XP filter.
Rock Auto had the filters $6.99 each, so I bought 6. O'reily has the same filter for $13.00. Even with shipping I save $25 bucks.

Just did my '11 Silverado. Valvoline Maxlife high mileage full synthetic and Fram extra guard filter.
Used to have dealership change. I told them Mobile 1 and PF48. After the 3rd time I noticed oil pressure was fluctuating. Looked underneath and it was a PF48e...big difference, PF48 has metal end caps more filter media and better bypass valve, PF48e has less filter media and plastic cage around it, cardboard end caps and schitty bypass valve. So I started looking at Bobistheoilguy and found Fram extra guard filters to be about perfect for my needs(look it up, all other frams junk) For my 5.3 I use the long filter XG10575.
So I did..
Mobil 1
Quakerstate Ultimate durability
Pennzoil Platinum
Supertech
Valvoline Maxlife
Switched off and on between oils. Two stood out. Valvoline Maxlife I can go 12k without oil pressure fluctuating. Supertech about 10k. All the others around 7-8K pressure starts to fluctuate.

Liqui-Moly (MolyGen) synthetic for me. 5w-40, and K&N filters, for the Saab daily driver. If it's good enough for Euro racers, it's good enough for me.
Castrol 20-50, K&N filter, for the vintage MGB. Hey, you asked!
(And yes I do all my own changes. I wouldn't trust the klutzes at the lube joints to even know how to drive these things, let alone have the oil I demand for them.)

Mobil 1 and Wix unless it's going on a Toyota product, then I'll use their filter.
If it's a Honda ATV or motorcycle I'll use their oil and filter.

Traveler (Tractor Supply) 15W40 from a 5 gallon pail in everything on the place- - - -3 Cars, 2 trucks, 2 lawn mowers, 2 tractors, pressure washer, generators, pumps, and a Harley soft tail. WIX or NAPA pro-select filters (same thing, one digit difference in the part number). No oil-related failures in the past 20-something years.

Only syn oil I will not use is Royal purple and Amsoil
Only filter I will not use is a Fram.
Other wise oil/filter gets changed every 10K or when the computer tells me to with whatever syn I can find for the least amount of money.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
