Ordered my Amsoil from Amsoil.com Sunday, received it Tuesday and changed the oil same day. For 2 gallons (4 quarts in gallon) of 0w-30 series 2000, 2 filters, and 1 bottle of engine flush it was $108 with shipping and taxes. Not bad for a year of oil (35,000 miles or 1 yr with a filter change at 6 mo). If anyone was curious, the oil pan does drain more when the front is lifted. The car seems to run better but surely thats placebo right?
** Does anyone know if the other lubricants in the '05 are synthetic or not? Worth changing? Anyone try the Amsoil air filter? **

Factory is a synthetic blend, but not a full synthetic
