Yes 0w-30 is a must in the Midwest during the winter and then use a High mileage oil during the summer.
Are you kidding me? I guess the decades of using 10/30 or 5/30 in the midwest, resulted in many, many people not getting to work each day.
If your car doesn't crank 5/30 at 0 degrees, there are other issues.
