I use Wal-Mart SuperTech it used to be 88-cents a quart, I now have to pay 92 cents 5W-30 Oil changes are still only $9 with my Motorcraft filter. I rolled 58,000 miles today on my '99-SVT.

I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Please explain that post... Then explain how 10W30 gives more protection at operating temperature then 5W30. I even gave you a hint. I will let you know that 10W30 gives slightly "less" startup protection since does not circulate as quickly. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
