I have a 2000 Explorer with 101,000 should I go with M1 Clean High Mileage 5w30 or M1 Truck & SUV 5w30 or just regular M1 5w30. Was planning on a 5-6K OCI.
 
If we knew the logic that you used to get to the list of three that you have presented, we may be able to help. I don't know enough about the new Truck and SUV to comment on it - I haven't seen much in the way of data for it yet. The High Mileage version seems to me to just be marketing. It does seem to have additional seal softeners. If you don't have seal issues now, why start softening them now. So, of the very limited list that you have already decided on, I suggest M1 SS (regular). However, I suggest that you consider lengthing your list of options and add some less expensive oils.

Just an FYI, there is no Mobil 1 Clean High Mileage oil, only a "regular" Mobil Clean High Mileage. The difference being, the Mobil 1 line is synthetic, there other offerings aren't.
