0W-20 Mobile One synthetic.

Yes and Yes ... but not quantified, however I do notice that range has not decreased much (about 30 miles per tank) during the winter. Others have posted much greater differences on this forum.

However, my TCH is normally garaged, so I start my morning commute with warmer oil than some. It also has a tank heater that I use with a timer when up skiing or when the car is out somewhere overnight (if possilble).
