I would take exception to Doc Holiday, not because he is wrong but simply because opinions vary. My take is you can run straight weight or multi-vis with similar results and with some possible benefits to multi-vis if you live in a seasonal climate with with both very warm and very cold weather. If your motor is in very good condition you could run a 10W-30 all year around or even a 10W-40. If you like to change oil seasonally try a 5W-30 in winter and 10W-40 in summer. If the motor is a little loose you can run a 15W-40 all year around or switch to 20W-50 in summer. If the motor is real loose you might do better with straight weight oils appropriate for the season.
