Default Which oil you guys using?
Did a lil searching with no luck but was wondering what oil seems to be good that you're happy with?? I'm debating on trying out that Royal Purple. Seems pretty legit. Can anyone acknowledge?

I use Mobil 1 synthetic... I've used Royal Purple with my previous cars with no issue; just seems overly expensive for no added benefit.

Redline in my opinion is the best synthetic oil on the market.

Default Valvoline
I would use amsoil but it's not good for all cars. I just stick with what I've been using on all my cars. Full synthetic valvoline 5w-30

Whatever synthetic oil that's on sale. Brand of oil makes no measurable difference in the longevity of the engine. In this case, I usually grab Pennzoil or Mobil 1.

I only use Mobile 1 synthetic or Pennzoil Ultra synthetic. I have lab tested almost all oils and even tested these oils in junk cars and these oils hold up to a beating.
