    Well that makes two people on here with 300k-400k miles using Castrol white bottle. Good job! Definitely helping me reinforce my plans to stop using synthetic.

    Because I change my oil at 5k miles and I'm basically wasting my money, plus the UOAs are the same between Synthetic and most modern conventional at that interval anyways. And people on BITOG seem to love Castrol GTX and Pennzoil Yellow Bottle. I'll probably get PYB next time around.

    I could go longer OCI's to get my money's worth from the syn, but I'm not a fan of that.

    All these high mileage peeps are doing just fine with conventional.

    I just got a 2003 with 200k for my kid. Hopefully he does not wreck it and it lasts another 100k miles.
