Default Anyone use this oil??

I was on Amazon and saw this
https://www.amazon.com/Milesyn-Synth...f_rd_i=desktop


Not a bad price at all for 5 gallons...I looked it up on BITOG and no one there seems to have info on it. It's a GF-5, SN rated blend so I can only imagine that it's fine...the description also says it meets Ford WSS-M2C946-A Ford WSS-M2C945-A service descriptions. I was thinking this would be great to keep for my truck and gf's Corolla. I should get almost 2 changes each for the price of one on my truck. So opinions??


PS PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THIS INTO A 5W20 VS 5W30 THREAD!!!!!!!! THERE IS A STICKY FOR THAT AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE!

Never heard of it, but the reviews for that brand across Amazon seem to be above 4 stars all around

Never heard of them either but their history dates back to the late 1930's. http://www.mileslubricants.com/aboutus

I'm a Valvoline guy myself, but to each their own.

I'll throw it even further and say that the oil that goes in is whatever the shop uses where I go to at that oil change time (the shop with the cheapest discount coupon available that day gets my business).

181k, tons of issues, none related to oil.
