The cheapest dino oil you can find unless you are tracking the car or want to really extend your oil changes. On Mobil 1 you could go 10k miles easy.

It comes down to personal preference, there is nothing wrong with Kendall motor oil.
Do a search and you'll find a lot of banter on who thinks which oil is best.

No, I heard Canola lubricates better and doesn't shear down as fast



OP: OK, in all seriousness, Mobil1 will suffice. Motor oil nowadays is at a point where you really can't choose a brand that will cause damage to your engine under normal conditions.
