Need an oil change somewhat soon so wanted to know where i should buy it, since its probably one of the only 5w-20 synthetics out there.. I've been using mobile 1 5w-30 synthetic, is 5w-20 ok for summer weather?

why would you want to switch out mobil 1 5w30? I don't think it's necessary at all..

gas mileage.. i keep getting told that 5w-20 has much more technology in it for it to retain that viscosity at high temp and will increase performance and gas mileage whether i can notice it or not

I run Amsoil also. You can by Amsoil direct form the compay. Just head over to amsoil.com and click on their online store section. You can get a case of 5w-20 for like 60 bucks. It will last you for a while too.

yeah, i've admired pete's car for over a year now. i'll email him and see how much i'm looking at.. That 20 for $60 isn't a bad deal either.

thanks again guys
