I’ve been researching and trying to put a bunch of things together on what oil I want to use in my new truck. Coming up on the first oil change now.
Things I have gathered:
—Full Synthetic
—Every 5k miles
—Motorcraft filter

My dad and I are debating which oil and I know there are a ton of opinions. I would like to choose an oil brand and stick with it for the life of the truck. He says go with Motorcraft as it’s engineered with the engine. Others I’m seeing are saying Mobil 1 or Castrol specifically.

Would love some input on those with 5.0’s specifically not the ecoboost on what you have enjoyed, has ran well, etc. or if anyone is a mechanic with professional opinions/experience.

Thanks in advance!
