So your thickest oil (5W30) is my thinnest oil.I stick to the owners manual. So 0w20 year round for the Honda and VW, and 5w30 for the Ford.
Yep …20w-50 in the 29f houston chill. id let it idle a bit.
Same here. In the 70's I used straight 40 year round. If it was good enough for the Detroit Diesels I was working on at the time, It was good enough for my slant six. I lived in Illinois at the time. Young, stupid and impressionable I guess40-grade all the time in my BMW down to -30F more than once.
Appropriate winter rating of course.

Every vehicle gets either 5W-30 or 0W-40 here in Alaska. OPE gets 0W-40, except for our chainsaws' 30W bar oil and their 2-cycle oil/gas mix.M1 0W-40 in everything except motorcycle, year round.
Even ADOT vehicles? InterestingEvery vehicle gets either 5W-30 or 0W-40 here in Alaska.
