    There are a lot of good oils out there. I personally use Amsoil but it’s not as easy to get, it’s a bit more expensive too. Mobil1 you could pick up at any Wal-Mart and a lot of times it’s on sale. Go on YouTube and look at all the tests people have done testing various oils and how they do in extreme cold vs heat. This website is a good place to start. https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/

    Last time I was in Colorado I brought the truck up at around 11k elevation and had the worst elevation sickness. Drinking alcohol when you’re not use to that elevation is not recommended
