Which one
Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0w30 or Valvoline Advanced 5w30?
Louisiana heat and delivery service with 8hr trips to Florida. Ran Valvoline Advance 5w30 last oil change and have 6k miles in a couple of months on 2020 Frontier with new engine. Engine has 7k as of now. Over next few months I have 3 trips planned as well as Door Dash so mileage gets up quickly. Fuel mileage calculated at 19.2 on 5w30 and zero usage

With zero oil usage on the Valvoline 5W-30 why are you even considering the Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0w30?

What does lack of oil usage have to do with this? Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy is Advanced Fuel Economy oil which may help with lower fuel costs if driving fair bit, not sure how much and whether it's made to withstand prolonged high speed driving.
ESP on the other hand is a very solid oil. If engine allows xW-20 oil then ESP 0W-20 may be a good choice to decrease fuel costs.
 
I went with 5w30 Valvoline Advance. Had a wire appear in sidewall of the Scorpion all terrain tires so non repairable. Got so all season Chinese brand tires called Greenleaf for cheap. They are quiet and seems to increase fuel mileage by just under 1mpg.

Pearl River eh? I live about 70 miles west of where you are. I really do not like to admit that. ;) I been wanting to move towards McComb, Ms for many years now. I have lots of my dad's family there. I used to hunt deer, do lots of fresh water fishing and camping around Percy Quinn state park. My mom's family are scattered all over the Gonzales / Sorrento areas. How long have you been in Pearl River area?
 
Me too., about 68 years now. I was born @ army base Fort Sill , Oklahoma. Parents moved here when dad got out the Armored Division.

The Chevy Chevelle Type S3 in the photo is identical to my very first new car. The photo does not do it justice.
When I took delivery of the car it had a paint chip and a ding in the front door. I left it at the dealership for them to fix it. Five days later I went to pick it up. The dealer could not find my car! Turns out , it was stolen. I threw a fit and wanted to sue them. It was very hard for them to find me a replacement for a while.

By the end of 1976 , Chevrolet had decided to discontinue the Chevelles for a couple reasons. One was that NASCAR had just banned the TypeS3 from racing due to the complaints from the other auto makers since the Chevelle Types3 was winning too many races and championships. Matter of fact the Chevrolet Chevelle TypeS3 is the very car that caused NASCAR to invent and enforce carburetor restrictor plates to slow them down.

So, my dealership took about a month and ended up finding me one of the last S3 cars available. Funny thing about NASCAR and that ban. The very next season , in 1977 Oldsmobile (owned by General Motors/Chevrolet came out with a new designed limited issue Cutlass 442 model. That car came with an almost identical aero designed wind cheating front end and it was allowed to race for several years. RULES! :rolleyes:
