When I bought a case for Mexico, I just bought the major brand on sale

critical driving is there a superior brand of oil?  >>

   IMO, there are not huge differences between brands which carry the
same API rating, but if you're in the habit of taking extended trips, why
not switch to synthetic oil which will allow you to extend your oil
change intervals?

   I use Mobil 1,  15W-50, and change it at around 8,000 mile intervals
more or less.
