Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W-30!
An oil that has been tested here on this site, with a high percentage of skeptical users that have seen great results, and non-user that have heard from others that it is just not marketing, it really works on a very very high percentage of cars/trucks. I still think Valvoline should of pushed the 4 oil change suggestion to 6, for some very problematic cars like Hyundai/Kia's that seem to need more time to see results.
Why wouldn't you want to use an oil that actually does something different then almost any other oil you would choose. All for $30 for a 5 qt jug.

If it ain't broke; Don't "fix" it.
In the end there can only be one. R&P
If it isn't burning oil than EP HM is good oil. If burning, than I'd run the VRP for 3-4k oci's. I ran EP in my 5.4l 2v Expedition and it was the quietest oil of anything I ran in it. Plus I like the added leak protection a HM oil gives you. My rationale for them both but either pick is a good oil.
Well the smooth and quiet part was the ep........Lol. If the engine is running "smooth and quiet" on a given oil, I ain't gonna change to a different oil . .02
