Purolator One and synthetic oil. I've used them on my '04 Yukon, '06 Buick Lucerne CSX (BIG Northstar V-8), and before it was totaled, my 2001 Chrysler 300M. I would go anywhere between 5K - 6K miles between changes. Never had an issue and the oil looked pretty good at the changes. There was some research and testing on filters a few years ago and if I recall correctly, Purolator One, Mobil One, K&N, and Wix came out on top. Used a Fram (it was free) on my mom's Mazda and it leaked after 1K miles. That was the last time I used "agent orange".

Last time I used a fram filter it blew the seal on startup and sprayed oil all over the garage floor. Sounded like a garden hose.

Mobil 1 M1-107 Extended Performance Oil Filter:
  • Provides long-life performance for today's longer drain intervals
  • Effectively removes contaminants, with a 99.6 percentage Multi-Pass Efficiency Rating and an advanced synthetic fiber blend media
  • Holds double the contaminants compared to other filters, with 28.0 grams of total capacity
  • Withstands nine times normal system operating pressure, for exceptional protection up to 615 pascals per square inch
  • Prevents dry starts by eliminating internal leakage during shutdown through the use of a silicone anti-drain back valve (where required by OEM)
