I personally lean towards affordability, so I run Mobil 1 0w-40 because the local parts stores run sales for $35-40 pretty regularly.

Pros: affordable price

I had a tiny bit blue smoke and thought it was sticky rings.

Personally I've mostly been using Mobil 1 15w50, as it's almost never run in the winter.

Pros: good for summer use

From my knowledge it doesn't matter what brand you put in. Just make sure its quality oil that's rated for your car and do oil changes regularly. I have used Mazda branded Moly 0W-20, Mobil1 Extended Performance 0W-20 and currently Pennzoil Platinum 0W-20. Honestly I can't tell the difference between them at all.

Pros: quality oil, regular changes

Cons: no difference between brands

Vehicle: Mazda 3
