 Way too many myths about engine oil. When people come to the realization that there is no best oil, it makes it a lot easier to decide and that decision is usually based on price, dino or synthetic. I have yet to see any documented evidence that blames engine failure on the quality of an oil. There are other reasons why engines fail. I use synthetic, SAE 5W-30 and buy whatever brand is on sale at the time I need to change the oil. I'm not particular about oil filter types either. I have never lost an engine resulting from the quality of the oil or filter. My $.02.
