I change it every 5k miles or so, depending on if i go to the track or not. I use mobil 1 and a motorcraft filter. Best bang for my buck, I think its 30 for everything (or so) at walmart.

My fusion gets an oil change every 5k miles also with motorcraft synthetic blend and motorcraft cartridge filter. 20 or so dollars for a change.

Dam software i was going to post a poll then my browser crashed so the poll was never posted. mods can delete this and change the forum settings, it should not be posted until the poll is done.
