The 0w20 from Honda isn't synthetic (I don't think) but its probably the cheapest price you will find for that weight oil. Time for most of us to start thinking about a "better' oil change.

According to Honda, thier Ow20 is a semi synthetic blend. As far as a better oil change...most shops were charging more for an oil back in the 80's, when the oil, the filter and labor was a lot cheaper. Marketing and advertising from some segments of the industry (including new car dealers doing $19.95 oil changes) is killing us. Look what we do when we do an oil change....It should be called a maintenance service. Plus now you have to reset the light, take down the splash pan, on and on and on.

 

An oil change is just not an oil change.

 

Sorry for getting off topic...

 

I totally agree, I'm trying to reform that segment of my business away from doing oil changes and into doing factory scheduled maintenance. Its a way to both differentiate and help the customer do what they are trying to do, maintain their vehicle. Plus to me its the only way to keep making a buck, no way I can compete with Walmarts and quick lube places. I don't want to play that game anyway.
