I do not think they will make much difference unless they are a heavier 
weight.  I have 140.000 miles on my pickup and it is burning something less 
than one quart every 3000 miles.  I use synthetic oil and have since about 
5000 miles.   The last 17,000 miles were pulling a 7700# trailer about half 
the time.  I have an oil cooler to hook up but that is all I am going to do 
before heading out this year.
