tonyd1 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Just ordered 2 cs (6gt ea) of mobil 1 5w50 from the lubication store. it cost me 117.02 with the damn shipping, that worked out to 9.75 a gt. that's what Ford wants for there 5w50 full syn. what oil brand are you guys using and where are you getting it from, 5w50 seems to be hard to find. I know Auto zone carries the 5w50 castrol at 7.99 a gt plus tax, but mobil one shoulb be a better oil, isn't it. Any advise will be well appreciated,thanks Tonyd1.

Castrol Syntec right now but in about 200 more miles I will be switching to "Redline" 5W50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wanted2b Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Motorcraft 5w50. I might switch to Royal Purple after the first 5000 miles. Let it get good and broke in first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldgus Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I've been using the Castrol Syntec 5w/50 since my ery first oil change, and all is good... When Advance Auto parts has their "Castrol sale" you can get 5 quarts of oil and a K&N or other good filter for $25 So, being that you need 6.5 qts (7 bottles), I buy the "deal" 3 times (15 qts and 3 filters) and then I'm good for 2 full oil changes.

Boss Hoss 540 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I use the 10-40 Amsoil but if I were to use a 5-50 it would be only Redline because the others mentioned above are Dino based no matter what the label tells you. Do the research just because Uncle let's them say the oil is synthetic does not make it so.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper T Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Royal Purple Products! RP make great products, no doubt, but thought they don't make a 5-50? Edited August 9, 2011 by Hooper T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
