Okay then... at my store... options are as follows:
****ty house brand filters that used to be made by fram but switched to china for cost reasons
Standard cheapo fram
Quaker state filter
Fram synthetic
Fram high mileage
K&N
In the back we keep the better Frams and we're soon going to be carrying mobile filters.

^^ ive had over 100 and sumthin cars and always used 10w40 synthetic and never had a problem and im sure you all see what i do to these cars with the big a$$ rims lol

10w-40 is too thick for newer engines. The celerances are too tight.^^ ive had over 100 and sumthin cars and always used 10w40 synthetic and never had a problem and im sure you all see what i do to these cars with the big a$$ rims lol

^^b.s ive used it for decades never had a motor go on me and i put a whoopin on them with my rims, it recomends 10w30, 10w40 a hair thicker better protection

i ran 10w40 all the time in my car to keep my oil pressures up high where i wanted them. no problems ever with it.lmao You read my mind, just not the 10W-40 part. 10W40 =
nah, its fine.
i always ran store brand dino oil and fram filters on my car and it ran like a top. i think anyone that seriously buys synthetic and runs it all the time is a complete sucker. these motors take anything so long as the oil gets no water in it or you run it low (or lose oil pressure). screw a $50 oil change, ill do mine for $20.

Oxymoron...Fram is junk no matter which version you choose.
If you want a cheap oil change, go with Wal-Mart SuperTech...some of the better oil and filters out there, and definitely the best bang/buck.
I use Mobil 1 oil and filters.

Was a joke really.
Its kinda funny that honda uses this system now. I was talking to a honda owner about it and he swears by the Honda OLM but wouldn't trust the GM for anything.True, I can confirm that. I have extrapolated my OLM a few times and it always puts me at ~9k mile oil changes. My personal worry is that I don’t see many oils that advertize 10k oil changes.But at the same time I do know GM fully stands by their OLM. Even thought they use a fairly robust algorithm for the OLM, it can’t compensate for all the variables.
