new (not really) oil from mobil 1, 0w-30 and 0w-20

hey all, i was just wondering if anyone's used the new...kinda oil from mobil. it's a 'eco-friendly' 0W oil and it's offered in a 20 and 30 weight. i looked at the back and it says it covers all maunfacture's warranties needing a 5w and a 10w class, but it's a 0.

and stock calls for a 30 weight and the new tsb calls for a 20 weight. what should i put in next? i put in 0w-30 cuz that's all walmart had in the $20 5q jugs, but they had quarts of 0w-20.

by the way, i've noticed substantial gains in fuel economy going from 37mpg to almost 41 with NO CHANGE IN DRIVING HABITS and no changes in city/highway miles per tank. it's all been about the same and i've gained almost 4mpg with oil...crazy i know

any way, need opinions on mobil1 ow-20 and wether or not i should use it.
