at work we have 3 different generation fseries from 150 to 450 with different motors and without fail they require 5w20.

as for the posts, the regulars here find it easier to answer one question once. the search function can usually answer any question you can think of..
X2. Big no no. Everyone who is on this forum every spare minute don't like to see the same questions over and over. Believe me. BUT. No big deal. Use 5w20 and call it good. Have a great long lasting truck. And a very helpful forum for it.
