Dude, Wolf's head oils are mostly sold at gas station convenience stores. The motor oil is recycled used oil. Please don't ever use that crap in anything, NOT even your lawnmower.
Supertech is a walmart brand. I don't know who makes it for them. I would stick to a name brand as in Mobil1, Penzoil, Havoline, etc. That way you know who makes it and you know the quality. I'm not much for taking chances on fluid replacements. Go with a sure thing.
My dealer changes mine free. The toyota dealer there uses Mobil conventional oil. In my truck I ONLY use Mobil1 for oil and Castrol ATF+4 in the tranny. YES it takes ATF in a manual shift in the truck.
