Welcome to the board, you have a 3rd gen ram but you are posting in 5th gen, you will get better answers in forum with trucks like yours. Generally 200k miles you are well within a time where you should look at high mileage oils, 5w30 should be the lightest you go, don't go thinner then that. Pennzoil platinum makes a great high mileage oil with lots of moly which rams like. Living in la, 10w30 would be a good choice unless you travel to snow country, then you might stick with 5w30.

US Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage keeps engines running strong when they reach 75,000 miles or more.
Available in the following viscosities: 0W-20, 5W-20, 5W-30, 10W.

It hits all the points that engine oil should achieve for high mileage
https://www.pennzoil.com/en_us/prod...VkYXBwLnN0YXRpYy9pbmRleC5odG1sP2xhbmc9ZW4tVVM

Walmart is selling it at $24.46 for 5 quarts
They are also running a Black Friday Special for $22.81 & you get a roll of Scott Shop Towels

note:
the number before the W, does not really matter if you live in the the warmer areas
ie: 0 W through 15 W
The W stands for Winter
If you lived up at the top of the Grapevine, where they plow the roads in Winter. You would be best off using 0 W or 5 W
In Australia, they only sell 0 W - and they have 4 seasons there also

Lucas stabilizer? 10w30 has a viscosity of 12, lucas has a viscosity of 110, you are adding a really thick oil to the sump. Your new oil with that mix will be thicker then 20w50. 12 x 6 = 72, 1 x 110 -110. Add the two 110 + 72 = 182 and divide by 7 is 26, your new viscosity will be cSt of 26. 20w50 has a viscosity of around 20, so you will be 25% thicker then 20w50 with that strategy.

Why did you chose a 30 weight oil? Because your additive is changing that weight to a weight way over 20w50 oil, thicker then even 60 weight oil, it is in fact turning your oil to the same exact weight as your front diff gear fluid.

Yes, skip the lucas, if you want an additive lubegard biotech is proven science, but if your engine is running great just skip the additives especially with those miles. Do not toss lucas out, there are sometimes in older engine it makes sense to use it, as in if your piston rings start letting stuff through, then going thick is good and can expend engine life a bit, but not in a well running engine even at 200k miles.

Mobil 5W-30 high mileage oil, nothing less. It is made with extra additives to help keep gaskets and seals in better condition, and well the syn oil is THE best you can buy. Forget Royal Purple, AMSOIL, etc, they just are not as good in the overall value of an oil to use in such a high mileage vehicle. Good luck now.

Just me 2 cents, I started using Mobil 1 full synthetic on my cars because the Very first time I used it, doing to many things at once, forgot to tighten the drain plug, took a 450 mile trip & about 50 to 100 miles from my destination I heard a sound from under the car. Yep, it was my drain plug but didn't realize it till I got to my destination. Next day, bought a new drain plug, 5 qts of Mobil 1, started right up & put an other 100,000 mile on that car without ever having a single engine problem. **** lubricant great. I'm stuck on Mibil 1 & will never use anything else.

With gas engines any oil that meets the new API spec is as good as any other motor oil. The high mileage oils are designed to reduce oil being blown past the piston rings and if you are not having to add a couple quarts between oil changes it will provide no benefit.

When tetraethyllead was no longer allowed to be added to gasoline it resulted in engines lasting more than twice as long. GM engineers knew that lead shortened engine life dramatically but GM had the patent for tetraethyllead so they went ahead with promoting its use. In the 1960's anyone with more than 100K miles on their car would brag about it. Now one needs 300K at a bare minimum to be in the high mileage club.

With lead gone the engines now last much longer and there are fewer children and adults with mental retardation and lower crime rates. Win win for everyone but the oil and auto companies.
