Hey boys and girls i'm planning a road trip from the west coast of canada to the east coast and I was wondering for a solid 5000 km trip what kind of oil would be best to use? I'm usuing good old mobile 1 right now. Any other synthetic sugestions? It's also going to go down in march so weather conditions should be fairly decent.

 

What exact kind of mods?
Advice for you, rent-a -car & beat the snot out of it.

 

If you have to worry about your oil breaking down in just 5000 km, then you need to find a new oil!

For the record, Mobil 1 is fine. Find something else to worry about, like gas money!

 

Thanks for the advice. I'm not worried about my oil breaking down or gas money I was just curious since most of our cars are drivin for short periods of time. Mods are stock bottom end, mild cam, headers and a few other bolt ons.

 

If I was going to take a trip that far. I would get a roll of duct tape and a gallon of water,Small tool kit, and something to keep you warm incase something does go wrong, And a cell phone that will work where ever you go. I always have my tires balanced before going on a long trip. Check all air pressure's, Fluid's etc....

Have a safe trip and good luck.
