What oil do you use?

How often do you change it?

and why do you use what you use?

I use mobil 1. I change my oil about every 2500 miles. I use it because its synthetic and highly recommended.. Royal purple is also another highly recommended synthetic oil.

Mobile 1.Every 5000 mi. I drive 100 miles a day so the oil gets a chance to boil off any acids or water.

Mobile 1 Synthetic and mobile 1 filter. I would suggest Royal Purple or Amzoil as well.

moble 1 every 3000-4000 miles

i use it because synthetic really is better.
im not one to buy in to tornado inserts and magnets on the fuel line but i think synthetics have proven themselves.
