Your mechanic probably doesn't realize that Pennzoil isn't as it used to be. It's actually a very decent oil. I haven't kept up so much with conventional oils, but their Pennzoil Platinum has nothing but good reviews and good results. Read all about it over at the BITOG forums. They seem to think it's one of the top oils out there these days, with the info and oil analysis reports these guys have done, I can't do anything except agree.
However, I just can't bring myself to run something that had such a bad reputation. BITOG members have also reported a sludgy brown sediment at the bottom of some of their Pennzoil Platinum quarts.
