Mobil 1 High Mileage no matter the mileage because it has extra antiwear ZDDP

I've used Quaker State for decades; my '89 Toyota 4x4 van, used as a daily driver and also alot of off-roading went 385,000 miles; tranny finally went, but the engine was still going strong and not burning oil. I have a '95 Tercel that currently has 335,000 on it, and a '06 4x4 Tahoe with 190,000.

Gotta agree, you can't beat Mobil 1, but just as important, is a quality filter...

Since we're on the topic I of course know of recommended weight grades but I'm in SW Florida where daytime temps 9 months of the year are from the mid 80's to mid 90's, so I don't mind "violating" recommended oil grade specs -- what's the best grade for my particular situation? Tks!

I started using Mobil 1™ Motor Oils 40yrs ago as recommended in my 'vette...Been the only oil I've used, in all my rides to this day!

Only if you're running high engine temp! I used 20w50 in my 'vette street/track racing. 30 protects @212°F+> FULL SYNTHETIC!

A stripper, crakhead, midget (sorry, little person), dreamer, LBGTQ-RSTUV, recovering meth-head, ex-gorilla, helicopter mechanic, guy/girl/he-she/it I met once outside a spirit airlines unisex family bathroom recommended amsoil.

I have stayed away from amsoil ever since....
