Mobil 1 5W-20 in Las Vegas. And that's really only because I can get it cheaper than I can get 0W-20, plus that I don't need to worry about its cold weather performance.

Lots of good info on oil on BITOG. Bob Is The Oil Guy. http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/
Top rated motor oils I've used:
I really like the Mazda oil but, am getting ready to do a "CATERHAM blend" using 1 pint of Mobil 1 0W-40 and then top off with TGMO 0W-20. The M1 is suppose to add to characteristics that increase shear resistance due to heat and the 0W-20 keeps it free revving and flowing good! We shall see...YMMV.
