1994 F150: How many quarts?

5.0 V8. Gonna change my oil, 10W-30. But how many quarts of oil do I need to buy? Somehow, I cannot find this in the manual.

6 quarts will do it. I'm sure it's in the manual somewhere-check under capacities.

It's in the very back. All mine just under 6 depending on how long I let it drain.

Mine is always five quarts even. I use Motorcraft Oil only. I might try Amsoil on the next change just to see if it helps out on mileage.
