I’d like your feedback on using Valvoline Extended Protection or Pennzoil Platinum in a newer 5.3 GMC truck engine. I’ve read a number of positive in-depth reviews of both. They both seem to have an impressive amount of additives as confirmed by Blackstone Lab reports. Both also seem to be well stocked and available at my local store.
Any good or bad experiences with one vs the other in the current 5.3s? I’m particularly interested any reports of excess oil consumption or lifter noise. 
I understand that any brand of Dexos1 will work but with the number V8 issues GM’s had I’d like to hear firsthand from other truck owners.
