I would not recommend Mobil1 or any synthetic for a high mileage vehicle...for one thing you should change oil every 3-6,000 miles and that can get expensive with synthetics. Just buy a premium brand of oil...I use Quaker state...never Pennzoil....and do your oil changes on schedule. Most wear in engines occurs just after startup so if you're daily schedule makes you start the car a lot, I would recommend having the oil changed at shorter intervals than longer. That's why vehicles with a lot of highway miles tend to last so long.

I use Mobil high mileage oil with Lucas oil stabilizer. My 2001 Nissan Frontier was using oil and I was using 5W30 at the time. I switched to 10W30 high mileage with Lucas additive and the engine sounds a little different and I have not had to add a drop of oil since.

I would stay away from synthetic oil for yours. because the oil are so thin, it might cause your oil engine seal to leak. go with any brand name motor oil, u be fine (main key: cleaner oil better protection) just change it on time(3000mi)

With 94,000 miles, I would use Mobil1 synthetic blend and not the full synthetic. 10W30, unless you live in the Mojave or LA.
