^^This is the oil I like best. Personally I stay away from Penzoil. It has to much paraffin in it.

Filter is super important on our Jeeps. Wix, Napa Gold or Mopar and you know you're safe.

For high mileage 4.0; Wally world Supertech 15-40 high zinc industrial fleet oil is a big bang for your buck!
In reality there is not any significant advantage from one brand over another.

I choose my viscosity by the ambient temperature. This is one situation where I agree with the recommendation of the Jeep engineers. Not everybody lives in the same climate. If I lived in Hawaii, I'd be using 10-30 all year long, but not in MN where I live! The -30 farenheit temperatures that we often experience mid-winter is damn cold, and I always use 5-30 for winter driving.

For temps primarily above 60 degrees farenheit, I use 10-30
