I switched to 5w30 Pennzoil Ultra Platinum a long time ago on my 2.0T. 140k miles and running strong. FK8 CTR Turbo added around 133k, too. FBO PRL mods!
Pros: running strong, high mileage
Vehicle:

I run Pennzoil or Motul depending on if I grab filters locally (Walmart for Pennz) or buy an oil change kit online (most use Motul). I would have no quarrels running Toyota's oil (Mobil 1), Subaru's Oil (Idemitsu), Valvoline, or any of the other reputable brands in my car
Pros: API SP rated full-synthetic

The engine itself runs great with the 48K I put on it in the past 2.5 years with biannual oil changes (Pennzoil Ultra Platinum). Averaging 27 MPGs on 91 Octane hwy miles, 24-25 mpg in the city.
Pros: engine runs great

I drive a 2021 RAM 1500 Classic and use only Pennzoil Ultra Platinum with the extended guard filter cartridges. I change my filter cartridge at 5,000 miles and reset my light then at around 10,000 miles, I change the oil and cartridge. There was one time I forgot to change my oil before winter and didn't feel like doing it in the cold so I ended up around 15,000 miles before changing it. The oil was still fairly clean.
Pros: oil still fairly clean
Mileage: 5000 km
My 2024 Toyota Rav4 Prime XSE has had 2 used oil analysis tests done at 4k and 8k miles on Pennzoil Platinum 0w-16 and Eneos 0w-16. Both results showed both oils shearing lower and out of grade to a 0w-8 viscosity at 100C in 4k miles.
Pros: oil analysis tests done
Cons: oils shearing lower
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 4000 km
Pennzoil UP was on a sale and I bought 15 quarts, my Sierra dropped a lifter within 200 miles of the OC and switch, related, no way, will I ever use Pennzoil UP again, no way.
Pros: bought on sale
Cons: dropped a lifter
Mileage: 200 km
