Question Recommendations for Oil

I plan to purchase my own oil. At this point, I am not going to use synthetic.

Any recommendations as to whose oil I should buy?

I'm a great fan of Castrol and have been using 5W-20 in my Camry.

IMHO, overkill for 99% of the drivers out there. Simply use a good quality oil and follow the recommended oil/filter change intervals and you will never have an oil related failure.
