Mobil 1 5W30 (sometimes I run the SUV formula) and a AC Delco filter (P46), thats what I've found to be the best. 0W40 is too thin for me, Fram filters suck, and the M1 filters are all extended performance now (at least around here) and I'm sure to make the oil last 15k they don't filter as much as they could.
