So I used the oil chat selector by clicking the banner ad for Pennzoil. The bot asked if it was high mileage I said yes. It said the best option is ow-20 high mileage Platinum and also suggested Platinum 5w-30. So what’s the difference between these two oils and which should I use Acura TL...

Thanks everyone! I think the most underrated market segment is the older 2 seater market in terms of fun:price ratio.

I remember watching a Top Gear episode where they had a really cheap, small economy car go "fast" around a race track, and it was followed by a super car. I think the eco was 3 cylinders. Afterwards, he said the eco ate more gas than the super car, so you're better off with a bigger engine.
