XD-50, you can run 100, but the 50 is fine

Troy,
When you're out of warranty (like me) do you really think any harm will come running another brand (cheaper) that still claims to comply with all manufacturer's requirements?

I use XD-50 in a 99 150 because that's what's recommended in or out of warranty. You can tell me a thousand times that something else will perform the same, but I'm still going to use XD-50 until a mechanic that I trust tells me it's ok to use something else.
