Buster challenged me to run a 5w-30 in this car due to the high miles. I was feeling wild tonight so I decided to proceed. So far, the engine seems noticeably quieter.
 
With less than 3000 miles since purchase, @ 24062 miles, got the itch.

For the F150:

Out: unknown dealer oil and Carquest filter

In: Amsoil 0w30/0w20 mix, Amsoil filter

2009 Chrysler T&C, 3.8 engine. 91865 miles, 5k on oil. Out Mobil1 HM 5w/30 and Napa Platinum filter. In: Mobil Super HM 5w/30 and Napa Platinum filter. Changed "early" because oil cap was accidently left off for 700 miles. Had planned on 8k OCI.
 
2005 Smart Forfour 1,3

Out: Shell Helix Ultra Extra 5W30 and Purflux LS287
In: Mobil 1 Peak Life 5W50 and Purflux LS287

The Shell is a low SAPS... I came back to a thicker full SAPS, since it will shear to xx40 in a few miles.
