Synthetic blend oils

Are synthetic blend oils ok to use, or is it just better to stick with dino or synthetic only? I just don't know if shelling out for synthetic is worth it.

Thanks for the link!

So it sounds like everyone agrees that the blends are not harmful, right?

if Acura is happy with dino oil, so you should do. However, I use Mobil one.

I am under the impression that blend oils are the worst option of the 3 options (blend, regular, fully synthetic). Not sure if it;s true though. If you dont mind the price, use fully syntheric. It cant hurt and most of the time, it is a better option than the other 2 options.
