Who makes 5W-20 Synthetic oil ?
I just got my new truck, and it takes 5W-20 oil. I have used Mobil One for 20 years, but they do not make 5W-20 Synthetic.
So which companies make a good 5W-20 synthetic oil? Thanks Don ------------------ SILVER 2001 LIGHTNING Built 02/14/01 Picked up 03/03/01 Sportmasters tonneau Bedrug http://members.tripod.com/donf150/Welcome/id7.html http://www.zing.com/picture/pa67ea45...0/fecaaa4c.jpg |

Don, Can't answer your oil question, just had to say Holy Crap!! that is a nice truck!

penzoil actually makes 5w20 oil. so does your ford dealer (motorcraft). i think mobil makes it.. only its called 'drive clean' and i think it's a synthetic 'blend'.
i'm using penzoil in mine until mobile's version is readily available. |
So far I know of 3 companies offering 5w-20 oil: Motorcraft, Mobil, Pennzoil
Wallmart carries Motorcraft & Mobil.

Thanks for the help guys, I will check out the RoyalPurple, give them a call in the morning.
roden and HarleySupercrew thanks for the compliments, she sure is fun to drive. Hopefully MobilOne will be making a 5-20 soon, I guess till then I will use conventional oil, or risk 5-30 MobilOne. |
I will be using Mobil 1 5W30 synthetic. When Mobil makes a 5W20 full synthetic, I will switch to that. The 5W20 spec is realy only for emissions and fuel economy.
