Re: Reg oil or Synthetic oil

I vote regular. Since the filter can't last as long as you expect the synth to then you still have to crawl under the car to change the filter.

Since it's been proven that the benefits of synth will only be reaped until after about a million miles or so I don't see the point in spending 4 times as much per qt.

As long as you run the proper weight oil it really just doesn't matter and in my opinion, synth oil is a huge marketing ploy
