True, Supertech is really a good conventional oil, a friend told me once
the supplier for the dealership he worked at did a comparision of dino
oils, the only one that did better than the wally world stuff in testing
was Mobil 1.
Synthetic is a different story, Mobil all the way. :) Though I think
Amsoil and Royal Purple are all hype.

Ditto.... I have mine changed at the dealer every 3000. Granted I
could change it myself, but its just not worth it in my book (especially
when the dealer does it for free! ) And when my freebies run out at
36k, I'll still have them do it every 3k.
I dont care how you spin it, theres no substitute for changing oil on a
regular basis. I put 170k on my 98 before shit hit the fan. I changed
it every 3000, and it ran great. Hell, 99% of the time i used SuperTech
10w30. Oil gets dirty, thats a fact of life....so why piss money away
on spin and propoganda??? Theres NO oil that can prevent contamination,
so whats the difference between $0.79 oil and $5.79 oil. Dirt is the
thing that causes oil to break down, right????
