oil
What do the people of the forum feel is the best oil for our cars. Right now I use what the dealer puts in and I want to change. I was thinking amsoil or lucasoil.

I know of a few F owners who use Mobil 1 5w-30 Extended Performance. Most importantly, it's best to have it analyzed to confirm how long you can go without needing a change.

Wal-Mart Supertech 5w-30. Unless you plan to keep the car, then Mobil 1 5w-30.
