is 10w30 the way to go?
I've changed my oil twice now since I've owned it and used Castrol GTX high mileage 10w30 both times. should I be using 5w30 as the manual states or does it not matter what kind I use. I'm going to be changing my oil within the next month just curious about it. I was thinking about using that Castrol edge anybody use this yet.

And the oppisate in the summer, Like a 10w, because it is thicker and in turn will not thin out as much. When the oil thins out, it will not lubricate adiquatly.

You should really use EXACTLY what ford recommends PERIOD! Engine tolerances now adays are so exact that they run best with factory recommended oil weight!! TRUE STORY.
Ask your self THIS why does ford tell you to put in 5w-30 and not 10w-30??
If ford recommended 10w-30 in your particular truck then you might very well be asking about 5w-30 in this thread, are you following me????
Common sense and logic, a long with good reasoning is your best friend, it will always out perform, OPINIONS.

Not impressed with RP...
I have been experimenting with some 0 weights from Mobil 1 and I like them. Though this is in a perf based car, keep that in mind.
I don't like to stray too far from what Ford recommends. They recommend it for a reason. I still use Motorcraft filters in my car, and whoever doesn't needs to. That or Napa Golds. All the rest are pretty much garbage.
