Default What oil does everyone use here???

Well it was time for my first oil change today with the new mustang. I went with Mobil Synthetic 5w-30 motor oil. Didn't exactly need the 5w, could have went with 10w in Michigan, but whatever. I was just wondering what type of motor oil all of you guys use? Thanks, Kyle

Ummm that's 5-20

That's is whats recommend from the factory. You can use 5-30. I wouldn't go any thicker.

As for a brand I run Royal Purple and have zero complaints.

I use mobil 1 synthetic 5w20 along with a motorcraft filter. The only thing bad about it is that the price for the oil keeps going up.[:@]
