Brendan: Good to know about sythetic oil in hot areas (I live in Phoenix). Is heavier or lighter oil better in a hot climate? I'm nearing an oil change (on both Tibs) and want to select the best oil for my 100F+ weather <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Thanks BraveheartII. I run my car pretty hard (too many pretty boys in Honduhs to take care of <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> ). My wife doesn't run it as hard. What are the disadvantages of a heavy oil if it's not run so hard?

So I should probably go with 10w50 in my car in the summer. 10w40 in both the rest of the year? (It doesn't get below 32F in the winter, and that only in the middle of the night)

Thanks
