Why worry about the small difference in price per quart while the real issue is what oil will make OPs engine (a $4000 item)last the longest. Most of today
s engines use 5W30 for year round application. We have posters who have used Walmart 5W30 and gotten 0ver 300,000 miles out of their engines without significant oil consumption.
I don’t see a $15 oil change at Walmart:
