From a advertising standpoint all oil is the same, with the same rating on the container. If one oil stood out substantially over the others, it would test for a higher rating. Obviously some oils will be better than others but the difference should be minimal. Check test results from labs and form your own opinion because there will be many different ones on this forum.

I'm not a Castrol fan (Valvoline or Mobil 1 are my favorite koolaids)
But I'm of opinion it really doesn't make all that much difference IF/WHEN you change it regular and often

I think this pretty much sums it up.

Yup, I find it interesting how some people fail to make the most out of this forum and simply look for the proper section to talk about their oil related thoughts/issues.
