Short trips in cold weather are hard on a car. Note how water will drip out the tail pipe -- this is one byproduct of combustion and only driving enough to thoroughly heat the engine and oil will eliminate it.
I have only used Mobil one Synthetic oils since I got the car. I am also having them change the oil as I am due for an change (80,000 miles).
