I think Traveller is Valvoline . The Eneos looks enticing with the high moly . Can get it at NAPA , but is a bit pricey . Close to $8 if I remember correctly . Hopefully they'll do some 5w-20s and 0w-20s .

honestly, $8 a quart? For that money, just get the stuff you use and change the engine every 100k and you'll save money. So 80 quarts, at $4 is 320, at $8 is 640. I know you can get oil cheaper than $4 a quart. I get oil changes for $16 from my mechanic.

Seriously a gently used stock engine isn't much more.

Don't plan to use ENEOS . Have Pennzoil Ultra 5w-30 at under $4 a quart . Will be picking up some more SHELL synthetic at $3.33 a quart ( w/o tax ) at BJs Wholesale before the sale ends this month . Use it for mowers and snowblower as well .
