Hello, everyone! I am new to the forum as I just purchsed my Ecoboost F-150 and I have a question. Is anyone running synthetic oil in their motor or sticking to the Motorcraft synthetic blend?

I know all the potential added benefits of synthetic blah blah blah and I used it religiously in the past but I was curious as to what the real world Ecoboosters were using and if their motor liked it or had issues with burning it, etc.

Running Motorcraft 5W30 full synthetic. Oil change made at dealer at 5k miles.
No prob for the last 1200 miles.

Mobil 1 0w-30 with no issues. Why would anyone run anything other than synthetic? Whatever brand synthetic you get will be better than a blend or Dino; at least psychologically lol

I plan on the Castrol Edge with Titanium as well. I used the Edge a lot in the past...why mess with a good thing.

I have 2 ecoboost engines in the stable; both on Motorcraft full syn 5w-30. Kinda expensive, thinking about going back to Pennzoil Ultra which worked really well in my Mazdaspeed3.
Oil consumption is zero.
