Best Oils?
I have a 2013 Honda Civic and a 2006 Honda Odyssey. Based on these 3 available to me rank them from the best one to the least best one and why for the best one. Links to each one included.

I was big on Mobile 1 have been using it on 2 cars. For my newest car (2013 accord), I switched to Royal Purple. About the same price as the Mobile 1, but uses Class IV PAO.
I notice a difference. When my wife's car (use Mobile) calls for an oil change, after the oil change, I can "feel" and hear a difference in the engine. That tells my the mobile 1 oil is likely degrading more than it should between oil changes.
My accord (use royal purple) calls for an oil change about 9000 mile intervals. I change the oil and its like nothing has changed. I can't tell the difference between the old oil and the new oil.
I will use RP on all my cars going forward.

Royal Purple is great oil.! try using Royal Purple "HPS high performance Street oil"
i had slightly better fuel economy over what i use now "Pennzoil Ultra" 2 awesome
oil's i just think the RP HPS oil has a little more of the slippery molybeduim additive mixed in it thats all.
