Yeah my gas mileage hasn't changed either - I thought it'd drop - but so far so good. And it drives the same as before, I suppose the real test will be when the weather gets cold, but the car is garaged anyway.

If I can make it to 7,500 miles on only a half quart I'd call it a success. I'm using Mobil 1 0w30 right now - honestly I kind of like it - I don't know if it's doing so well because of the warm weather or what, but it is. I might go back to the 0w20 in the winter, then again maybe not.
Mobil 1 0w30 is my FAVORITE! I won't use any oil with a w20 on it.

Ueah I've had some good luck with it in the 6,000 miles I've used it, very little consumption, no issues. I bought a bunch of it when it was on sale and applied the Mobil 1 rebate to it.

@Doublebase: Talk about having you cake and eating it! Glad I found one other person willing to fill the 460 engine with Moby1 0w30.

...but Soon we'll hear from the people sending oil into companies for the $25 analysis, when less than $50 will get you some good M1 0w30 from Walmart everyday all over N. America
