    i use what ever SOG puts in it. they say not to use mobil 1 unless you make a habit out of checking your level every 1000 miles.

    I use Mobil 1. I only check my oil if I am going on a really long road trip, or doing an Auto X or track or something. I change my oil every 3000 to 3500 miles.

    I check my oil every other fill-up. Boy do i get weird looks from people. One guy said, "Miss you popped your hood instead of your gas tank".

    i used to pay only 17 bucks for 6qt of Mobil 1 till now. but starting next year, it'll jump up to $30...

    People say dat synthetic last a lot longer than 3k miles, but my last oil change was done about 4k miles. My milage went up 2-3 mpg with alot smoother idling which does tell me dat i shouldn't be cheap with engine's vital blood. just my 2cents
