in reality i dont really need the monte. i ride my bike in town in the summer and now i have my beater lumina so there is no reason for me to have the monte out. keep in mind i only live 3 blocks from my shop to so i dont really need a car to commute everyday. i think this spring/summer the monte will get drove alot tho.

I use 5w30 Mobil 1 in the 05 and conventional Pennzoil in the 03. Haven't decided what route to take when I purchase a new car in the spring.
