Until switching to synth in our cars, always swore by Havoline. My pop put over 200k miles on 2 diffrent Chevy trucks running it (work trucks).
The guy he worked for/with got similar results from Valvoline in the other trucks they owned.
Only real issues I've ever heard of was from Quaker State they tried in a couple of the trucks.... seemed they were the only trucks they ever had problems with

Havoline is supposed to be great due to the high moly content. Personally, I say use whatever decent oil is on sale, and change regularly (5k is good for a beater). Or use the fully synthetic wal-mart SuperTech oil. It's had great analyses run.
