Mobil 1 "High Mileage" 10W40...

Is what I've been using in my higher-mileage 9-5s of late. The 10W40 is rated ACEA A3/B3,A3/B4, just like the 0W40 is.
One advantage is that it's commonly available in 5 quart jugs at Wal-Mart for under $25...
If your fuel economy has dropped by 6 MPG, something's amiss. It could be a lot of things, from a change in your "normal" driving routine, to simply needing the tires inflated, to needing new spark plugs, or something else.
I know my V6 mileage fairly tanks when I'm off the highways, and on local streets, primarily.
