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:
Honda Civic
Mileage: 225308 km
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
have run penzz plat 5-30 for the entire life of the car almost, recently switched to the high mileage version as im pushing almost 150k miles on it.

I go every 5k using Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30, though it's just a stock engine/tune and more than half are highway miles
Pros: stock engine, highway miles

Mileage: 8046 km
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
Vehicle:
Ford Maverick
Mileage: 48000 km
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
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
