If you plan on changing your oil every 5K miles, you can use regular oil. If you plan on extending the OCI you would want to use synthetic. Any one of the top brands are good. Castrol, Mobil, Royal Purple, Red Line, Amsoil, etc.

yea yea yea we ALL know that plain old 30w that you can buy from chevron, if changed at reg intervals, offer no real visible benefits over the synthetics... BUT THATS NOT THE POINT. Its all about the 'my oil costs more than your oil so it must better than yours', like the 'my wife has bigger **** than your wife so shes better'. PSSH only the old men mechanics know that truth but soon they will all die out, LONG LIVE THE PURPLE STUFF~
