Has anyone used Joe Gibbs Driven GP1 5w-20 oil in their 5.0 engine. Thanks, Bob 2018 F-150

Odd that they don't mention it on their web page but ZDDP is supposedly bad for catalytic converters. Their oil has it. They did make a video but the guy sure doesn't sound like scientist or engineer. He says that oil evaporates, and if you can keep it from evaporating your engine will be fine. Might be the worst sales pitch ever.

Thank you for the response. I did not think about the ZDDP. I use Joe Gibbs in my classic cars but with a modern engine, I can use motorcraft semi synthetic 5w-20
