My choice is Wal-Mart generic full synthetic.
Great stuff.  Cheap, too.

How much does it cost?  There are no walmarts near me, but if the price is
right, I will drive out to find one.

Out of curiosity, how did you come to this decision?

I have used Havoline and like it well enough.

I used to use Quaker State, but found that it had begun to cause deposits
and varnish as badly as Pennzoil.  (Fancy that!)

I switched to Castrol and so far have no varnish complaints.

I haven't seen any real data on any of them.

glad you asked. you have to trust someone, and having grown up across
the road from gulf and texaco refineries - you learn to trust the man
that wears the star.:--)

present day havoline motor oil 10w30 displays the servicio api sm, sl
ilsac gf-4 designation on the label.

I haven't knowingly ever had any trouble with any oil that I have ever
used, I attribute this factor to the use of quality oils / filters that
were used - as directed.

"happy motoring"

For all the cars I have bought used, I used whatever brand name oil was on
sale.  That works well for me.  For my one and only new car, I have been using
Mobil 1.
