Default Oil and Oil Filter Questions, First time doing an oil change

I've had my 04 Mach 1 for about a month now and wanted to change the oil but I wanted to do it myself. Im unsure of what type of oil to use and what type of oil filter to use. I want to use the best stuff for my car to make her last longer. any help is appreciated.

I prefer redline fluid and motocraft filters. as stated check the oil threads and you will find tons of information and opinions.

takes 6 qts of 5-20 of your brand of choice. I use motorcraft synthetic blend and a motorcraft filter. you'll need a 5/8" or 16mm socket.
