I hear ya....We already know that the Syn Blend Magnatec 5w30 shows some great UOA's....I'm saying they may be even better now that it's full syn....unless they skimped somewhere else with the FS formula.
 
They don't have the FS 5w30 yet at my local Wally World, but I decided to grab a jug of the Magnatec 5w20. I always use Pennzoil Platinum, but after reading through the comments and some UOAs, plus it was $5 cheaper a jug. I know how the Platinum does level wise on my 6k changes, so I'll see if the Magnatec burns off more or stays about the same.
