Which is the better dino? Which do you prefer? I see the Pennzoil is a SM rated oil and the QS is SL rated.

Your looking at old Quaker State. It is now SM rated.

But to answer your question, I personally would choose the Pennzoil. It uses a different base stock (Group II+) and I believe it has a better additive package. The blends are about the same, but in the High Mileage oils I would again choose the Pennzoil over the Quaker State. On the synthetic side I like the new Pennzoil Platinum better.
 
I used QS 5W-20 when I got my 02 Accord and then found out this site. Did a UOA on it and the oil was just about dead after 3K miles. Pennz. held far better.
