Just wondering why you don't use Mobil 1 10w30 year round, it's a better oil. How often does the temps in your area get below "0". Click to expand... Would you expand on that? I agree but have had precious little ammo to push that argument.

Oklahoma winters can be pretty long and cold. we can see many days in a row of -15 deg F. (Without that nasty wind chill). I will say, I will start using a mix of 10w-30 and 15w-50 in the truck and jeep. 3 to 2 mix.
