M1 0w-20

So im actually stoked cause my shop is now carrying the recently dis-continued Mobil 1 0w-20 again. I gathered up about a case when we got our last shipment like a year ago but now its back. I personally love the stuff cause my motor runs cooler and gas mileage is slightly up. Not much but every little bit counts.So i was just wondering if anybody else has tried it and if so opinions on it.

Flashlightboy is an unknown quantity at this point
The oil you're referring too is the newer stuff for the hybrid engines - it's not the older stock that existed a couple years ago.

The 5w-20 that AZ, PB and Wally World stock is the good stuff for our engines.
