[quote="cargodz"]Actually it's kinda funny, cause yeah I treat my car right by giving it full synthetic oil changes, but I found that I get better in town mileage when I put in 89 (plus) octane over 87 (regular)... and it's a big difference (3-4 MPG), so what I pay at the pump may seem like more, but I get a lil further on it, so it equals out ]
Yeah, I did the same experiment with the same results. Though, I have heard it does not always work. I too change my oil religously with a good filter and a good synthetic oil. What brand of oil and filter do you guys perfer? I'm just wondering I like Castrol synthetic and WIX/NAPA Gold filter.

I use whatever oil is on sale and i use a K&N oil filter just because it has a nut on the end and my truck is impossible to get a filter wrench on without taking the air intake off and going in from the top.My wifes suburban gets whatever filter is on sale usually a purolator. Bikes get Klotz full synthetic and fram filters.
Yup Castrol for me too and usually Fram filters.
