I know the list of brands is far from complete but I added the major brands that seem to be talked about most here, and those you can find most anywhere - at least in the US. Other seems will be a large portion of this poll.
discuss, but dont biotch here. Facts mostly please, just gathering data here in the form of a poll

Limited to 3 poll questions, not relevant to what I am looking for, more of what you buy than how often.

No Repsol?!? Never used the stuff but I hear some guy named Nicky likes it..
I've stuck with Valvoline for 20 or so years. I just haven't been convinced synthetic or MC specific oils have enough benefit to justify the additional mortgage on the house to pay for them. The evidence may be there, I just haven't bothered to look for it.. :lol:

KENDALL, best crude oil in the US. Have used it for years in everything. Change it and OEM filter every 3,000 miles.
Only problem is it is getting harder to find.

Mobile One, gold cap, but only because it is was what most every one was using on here when I first got the VFR.
Never put synthetic in the car or truck
