Shoot, I forgot.

I know I am going on 6c worth, now ...

My last Mobil One was from Walmart on sale ... about $17.00 for 5 quart jugs ...

Also forgot to mention cold weather starts (may not be an issue for ya) and extreme heat operations (also may not be an issue for ya).

You can also safely extend oil change intervals signficantly in most engines (data on diesels are still unclear, but it looks like they too can go for extended intervals - everyone is just concerned about how the oil "looks" due to particulate suspension).
