[QUOTE="shawn stonbraker 2, post: 659566, member: 62109"] Mike, the onlt benifit is, you save money by going with the regular oil. I would change to the Motorcraft filters though. I used Fram and had a rattle at start-up. Took it to dealer and they said to change it to Motorcraft filters. Changed to Motorcraft filters and it went away. I don't use Mobil 1 because it only gave me maybe 1 mpg more. For the price, I changed to Supertech (Walmart brand) synthetic oil and change every 5k miles. Used the same oil in my Toyota for years and it's still running with no engine problems.(220k miles and my friend bought it) So, maybe just switch filters and run whatever oil you can afford, you'll be fine.;) [/QUOTE]
