It's what I use and I think it's great stuff. You'll need to add 5.5 each oil change and $23
is a great price. In Maryland from a local Pep Boy's or Track Auto a case(6quarts) is like $32-$38 bucks. I get it from the dealership I work at for 5% over cost and that is still $28. And stick to AC delco filters. Like I said I work @ a GM dealership and we have seen some bad things happen from Fram and other filters in these cars.

More than likely I would be buying the oil and bringing it to a dealer to do the change, I don't want to screw anything up.....So I guess I should be buying an AC Delco filter too than.....

Rapid Motorsports told me if I was going to a synthetic to use Royal Purple. Mobile1 breaks down when it gets hot and cause the burning of oil.
