0W30...but if I could find 0W40 Mobil-1, I'd use it.

Default Gas mileage drops a hair with the 0W40.
I was using 10W30 prior (which should be the same as 0W30 when warm), and I lost about 1-1.5 mpg it seems. I'll probably end up switching over to 0W30 for winters, and keep the 10W30 for summers.

Another "Oh Dub-Ya-Three-Oh" here but will switch to "The Forty" when the "Three-Ohs" all used up.
