Negative on 50 weight oil. If you like Mobil 1 just use the 10W30 or at the most 0W40 European blend (available at Walmart), that's what I run in my GTO. If I drove it in the winter (which I don't), I'd use 5W30.

ive NEVER ran pennzoil in any of my vehicles. heard bad stuff about them back in the day and havent looked at them since. Ive always run Quaker State or Castrol and had very good luck. I've used Mobil 1 on this truck cuz I get it for free at my work and thus far have not had any problems. Been using it for around 40k miles. I just figured Id use a thicker Mobil 1 since ours is 5w-20. Yes I have heard Amsoil is great, don't know where to get it unless oreillys has it but i prefer getting oil at walmart if i have to pay for it cuz its a lot cheaper.

you can run what you like but the biggest thing is changing it regularly.
