Castrol Synthetic, and change it once per season before I put her away for the winter, regardless of miles.

Mobil 1 full syn. 5W30 with a Delco, Baldwin, or Champ 2 qt. filter only every 5,000 miles.

Rotella full syn. 15W40 in the Onan generator with Baldwin filter once a year ( do not use generator must since I have solar panels and AGM 6 volt 220 amp hour batteries).

Allison Transynd full syn. trans fluid, aftermarket, thick walled, fined alumn. deep pan made by PAT (adds 3 qts. to capacity and stiffens the case) and change external filter every 5,000 miles. I only use Baldwin or Allison filters which are USA made.

I do not use K&N, Delco car applications, Wix or NAPA, or NAPA Gold, and especially Fram.

In my 97' Honda Accord I use Mobil 1 full syn. with either a Honda or Puralator Gold filter and change every 5,000 miles. I have 162,000 miles on it and only use 1/3 qt. of oil between oil changes!
