You will find YB is one of the highest regarded dinos around here. MC 5000 is not a bad oil at all, but its regarded as a "cheap" blend.
Just came from Walmart and Pennzoil conventional and Motorcraft Blend are both $11.50.
Live in Cleveland and experience pretty harsh winter temps......for the same price....which one do I choose and does either benefit me in winter? Jeep 3.7....4000 OCI's.
Any thoughts on Supertech 5 quart for $9.50.

Trop-artic syn-blend

Or is the price the best gauge?
No flames please...a decision was reached on the OLM deal & it will be changed at 50% from now on per the owners wishes.
thanks guys
Id say its a toss up, and comes down to price. the nice thing about the blends, is that usually their cold properties are slightly better. Although, Pennzoil conventional is close in a 5w30 at -39 which is excellent.

IDK, but between the two I'd go with Pennzoil Conventional 5w30. I just noticed they dropped the price another $.50 @ Wally to $11.50 a jug, only $.50 more than MC5k.

Super Tech is decent stuff, but I would rather spend a couple bucks more on the Motorcraft, Mobil Clean 5000 or Pennzoil. They have very decent levels of detergents that will help keep your engine clean.

The add pack looks pretty good to me for a convetional. Moly is at trace levels but it now has a nice shot of boron.
