8 months later...

Traded the Concorde in for a 2005 Chevy Uplander, just put Mobil 1 5W30 in it today for the winter.

Put Valvoline Maxlife Synthetic 5W30 in the Blazer today also for the winter.

Will be putting Mobil 1 5W30 in my Mom's 98 Buick century probably next weekend.

My old Ciera wagon (soon th be retired to boneyard): 4 quarts AutoPrix 10w30.

Well, yes some folks here advocate one ounce of the Synpower Treatment per quart. I did it more to thicken the oil (as well as boost additives). I calculate with the full bottle I am running close to 16cSt at 100C. Truck is running great on it.
