I've been very happy with it. I'll try other oils once in a blue moon, but I keep going back to it and it's pretty much all I run in all my vehicles regardless of mileage for the very reason you stated, the add-pack.
I bought 15 quarts of Valvoline Synthetic Maxlife 0w20 this year after finding it on sale for $3.25/quart. PQIA recently tested it against 4 other similar oils and Valvoline IMO had the strongest showing. So that made me even happier with the purchase.
I just bought some for my CRV. I hav never used HM oil before but I do typically use Valvoline FS in the CRV, so I figured I might as well try some HM now. It was only $21.97 at Walmart, so I figured I'd get it.

I reach for Pennzoil (Shell) or Valvoline (Napa). You may see a little consumption at first. You may see the dipstick turn black sooner. That's what I experienced in my 2004 Colorado 4X4
I'm not sounding any alarm. Just giving you a heads-up.
