I've had good results from Blackstone with running Motul X-Clean EFE 5w30. It has a high HTHS value so it keeps it's viscosity over time, from what I understand.

Pros: high HTHS value

Vehicle: Subaru

For my Ford I use motorcraft because it's oem.

For my high mileage Honda I've been experimenting with how the oil "looks" after a change. I know it's not technical but the valvoline oil seems to hold up well.

Pros: oil seems to hold

Vehicle: Honda
