Motor oil/Gasoline preferences
I know this all boils down to what you "like", but what type of motor oil and brand of gasoline do you use in your jeeps, and WHY?

I use Rotella 15/40. I know its diesel oil but my jeeps love it, Got all the stuff still that a good oil needs. Then gas what ever is cheapest since the fuel filter on mine is easy to change and only 10 bucks.

Amsoil 5W30 only need to change my oil once/year.
85 octane - don't need high octane at this elevation plus its the cheapest price-wise.
