Which Oil Do Do You Prefer To Use ?

I use Mobil 1 Synthetic 5W-20. Why 2800 miles? I'm sorry, I had to ask.

Re: Which Oil Do Do You Prefer To Use ?
I use Motorcraft 5w-20 in my Mach 1 and Royal Purple in the Cobra.
I also only use Motorcraft oil filter's though. No particular reasoning, just what I use. |

Re: Which Oil Do Do You Prefer To Use ?
RP 5-20 changed out every spring (about 1.5k miles) or prior to any track outing.
Motorcraft oil filters

Re: Which Oil Do Do You Prefer To Use ?
I've been using Mobil 1 Synthetic for about 18 years since I bought my first Mustang in '92. I'm happy with it so I don't see a need to change brands.
