How about the $73.00 oil change. I will not be doing that again.
You see I went to the local garage in small town (population 675) to get the oil change figuring it might be $10 more just trying help out. Nope almost twice as much sorry local economics cannot afford it and no tire rotation.

You can use either one but I guarantee you no one will ever , ever notice any real world difference in any category by choosing the full synthetic over MC synthetic blend. Except a lighter wallet. MC SB has an excellent reputation.

I'm glad the OP asked the question as I am in the same situation. Are you planning on running it until the "oil life indicator" comes on? My truck is lease back with 32K miles on it that I bought last week. (sorry, not trying to hijack the thread).

With a full synthetic you can run 7500 to 10k. What I would do is run 5k miles and have a blackstone analysis ran on your oil. That will tell you what is going on inside the motor. If all is good, bump it up to 7500 for the next change.

Just had mine changed with The Works package (oil change/tire rotation). $39.99 for up to 5 quarts. The 5.0 takes right at 8 quarts so they add for the extra. Right at $60.00 for me. Every 5k miles or 6 months.

I do Mobil 1 10w-30 when the oil life meter hits about 15%. That and a tire rotation sets me back about $115.
