    I normally go with whatever is on sale -- recently quaker state has been very aggressive ... price wise.

    I've been using Toyota 0W20 exclusively. From my Canadian dealership liters were $5.65 for a long time, recently went up to $5.91. I've done 10 changes so far (every 6 months), and with the car at 58000 km, no oil consumption between changes, so far.
