OK, I'm new to this BB (wish I had found it a year ago!) and am confused about what oil I should be running in my 95 D1 with 3.9 litre gasoline motor.

I live in Colorado so Winter is 0 degree mornings up to 65 degree days and Summer is 60 degree mornings up to 90 degree days. According to my owners manual I should be using 10w-30. But that seems awfully thin. What's the "word on the street" for oil recommendations?

I use mobil 1 15w-50 all year round. Its supposed to flow down to -30 (i think?).
