I just bought a 2010 Subaru Forester, 148,000 kms. Should I use a high

Thank you.

In my opinion high mileage oils are 99% marketing but go ahead and use them if you like. Any name brand oil is good. I use Penzoil but other major name brands are also good.

Would anybody else have an opinion on the value of high mileage oils? I have no expertise in this area, but really like learning from people on this forum.

The cost difference for high mile oil is negligible so use what you like.
