Only that it's full of awesomeosity, and it's thinner than what you're used to. So if you leak or burn oil, you'll leak or burn a little more than usual.

Advance Auto and Wally-World seem to be reliable sources of 0W20.

One advantage of synthetic is that you can go longer between oil changes. M1 Extended Performance oil advertizes that it's suitable for use with a 15000 mi oil change interval. But you may want a better filter if you're going that long between changes. They claim to have "more" dirt-holding capacity, whatever that means.
