i used to on my old motor...i liked it a lot, swear my engine sounded better but you know how that goes...lasted a long time too
i started with mobil 1 5w30 when i first got my car in 08, because thats what i used on other cars but it was really thin and worn down fast (low after 2k) so i switched to castrol 5w40 and it was a bit better but not by much
and then i tried royal purple 5w30 and i would go 5k oil changes without losing any oil, but that motor blew a headgasket (coolant hose broke) and with the new motor i run rotella t6
