Usually you can't find 5w-20 in every oil brand at most places, wally world dosen't carry it in a few different brands. When will 5w-20 be a major player? I want to see 5w-20 supertech.
I've never seen Havoline 5W20 at any of the Walmarts in my area. Plus, the other grades they DO carry are now about $1.90 a quart.quote:

You can get Havoline 5W20, 1.58/Qt..
I suspect that if the average vehicle had a 500 pound reduction in weight, and the vehicles over 4000 had a 1000 pound reduction in weight, that all of the manufactures fleets could easily meet CAFE limits with whatever oil any manufacture relly wanted for long life.quote:
Honda "recommends" 5W-20 strictly for economy reasons. For mechanical reliability, Honda still prefers the use of 10W-30 motor oil.
While the former may be stated in the owner's manual, the latter isn't, and is a giant assumption on your part.quote:
