Two questions:
I need a recap, or consensus of which is the preferred oil.
1) I recently came across 2 - qt jugs of Pennzoil Ultra 5W20 (API SN, GF5), marked down in a Walmart for $15 each - which followed me home. Taking price out equation, was this a better oil, than the current Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W20. Is the current version, really an upgrade or just marketing - and why? I'm asking because I have read of many on the Mustang forums who lament the change from the old, low Noack version. Also, is the old version a GTL base, like the current Pure Plus, Ultra Platinum version?
2) I also bought a few Royal Purple 5W20 5 qt jugs, that were also clearances at $15/ jugs at the same Walmart. Is there anything superior about this product compared to a Pennzoil product or Mobil 1 0W20? I am considering returning these.
Vehicles are a 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid & a 2004 2.3L Ford Focus.
