Honestly though I haven't noticed a difference in the two. I think I'm going to start saving the 20 bucks and use Mobil1 from now on.

BTW i don't know if they still do it but walmart was doing full syn changes for 20 or 30 bucks, I can't remember. I asked if they'd let me do the royal purple that they carry for the same price and they said yes! But my car was too low for the dungeons FML.

i rather save the $20-30 too. speaking of walmart. thats where i get my mobile 1 from. they are like $23 for the 5 quart jug.

That's where I get mine at too, except I have to find a Better filter than fram

I was always a Castrol guy but I put royal Purple in this last time and I could really tell the difference between the 2 oils. And i always use a WIX filter, it just like the mobil 1 and K&N but usually half the price. My question is whith the milage I have should I be useing something other then 5-30?

I usually use Royal purple with a k&n filter or if there out of that I'll use Mobil 1 or a Fram TG.
