That's waaaaay too thin, stick with a nice thick oil like 0W-20.
I would use it in my prius.
Wait until the -16W-0 shows up.
With a MOFT rating of 0

The SAE already has designations for 0w12, 0w8, and 0w4
I'm waiting for the canola oil spec.

Wonder how it would run in a Crown Vic........
I wonder how well this oil would do in a high mileage LM7? Both of the trucks have no issues running 0W20 and I have the UOA's to back it up.
Hold my dino oil, the Chevy is getting 0W16!

Just budget for new timing chains and guide a lot earlier than before.
Shouldn't be long before Ford back specs it in all their older cars/trucks.

We need someone on here to do a long term test on their WRX STi with it.
Do you think 0w-16 is more difficult to formulate and will it require a better base stock?
