The question is, is the decrease in protection worth the increase in FE?

I think that both Ford and Honda have been recommending 0W20 for some time now. I have not heard of any rash of early engine failures.
As far as I know Honda has only put 0w20 in the Insight, and has moved to 5w20 in nearly everything else. Don't think it's universal yet.
