Any pros/cons on which to use?

I realize that Mobil 1 would be the #1 choice, but Castrol is easier to get
in my neck of the woods it seems, as I see it on the shelf and it's also
available at Costco (the motor oil at least).

Any opinions or cautions "against" using Castrol as synthetic source for
motor and tranny?

Thanks in advance

Was in Sam's on Thursday. Mobil1 was $22 and change for a box of six
quarts. Closer to $24 everywhere else.
