Subject:      What oil to use?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I know I'm asking something that is often discussed, but I'm new to the list and haven't been in on the discussion.  :)

What oil does everyone use?

It seems from what I've read that most people like the synthetics... I think I've seen Syntech 5w-50 mentioned by name.

What's your opinion on the brands, and the viscosity?  I live in TX, so extreme cold is not really a factor.

Thanks for the input.
