    Rotella 15w40 in truck and LT1.

    Napa gold or Wix filters.

    Unless you have a UOA to show me otherwise, quality oil is all the same. Use good stuff, and change it as you should.

    Recycled Autozone brand for me.

    15w40 in the truck
    5w30 in the new SS
    20w50 in the Hawk







    Just kidding. I would only use Autozone oil to douse a fire.... If my exwife combusted, spontaneously of course.

    My mustang buddy has a saying about his soon to be ex wife.

    "It wouldn't bother me if she walked in the street in her mustang cobra hoodie and got hit by a 4th gen camaro..."

    Lol off topic sorry.

    I've got good ole Rotella 15w-40 in mine right now with a Purolator Classic truck filter. I haven't really driven it since its started to get cold out though, but I highly doubt it would get cold enough to actually damage anything. I've ran pretty much every brand from Advance Auto conventional 5w-30 to Rotella 15w-40, and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Honestly as long as you keep your change intervals reasonable, it doesn't matter a whole lot if you are driving somewhat normal and beat on it just periodically. I just like Rotella since it is fairly cheap and has a good strong additive package.

    I'd think about switching weight more than brand. Maybe like a 10w-40 or 15w-40 since you've got some mileage. I personally use Castrol Edge, or German Castrol when I can find it (the 0w-30 is really closer to a 0w-40), but that has more to do with that I was brought up using Castrol products in everything than anything else.
