So you guys with negative double digits in ambient temp. Any thought to switch to 0w-30 during the winter? I've considered it a couple times, I'm sure that would get more oil to the right places on startup and Mobil 1 says their 0w-30 meets all of 5w-30 guidelines....

I'm guessing you go to YSU. It is pretty cold here in Ohio, well at least colder than were used to!
