I've run nothing but Mobil 1 & a Motorcraft filter on my last three Ford trucks.
I sold the 2007 F150 to my BIL at 140k, it has 175k on it now and going strong. He swears it runs like new.
My current truck is an F250 gasser with about 50k. Since it's first oil change (I perform them all) it's been Motorcraft filter and Mobil 1 - every 5k - easier to remember changing at the 5's!
Since I change at such short intervals, I'm thinking about switching to Castrol GTX High Mileage synthetic blend, and the same Motorcraft filter. The oil is about half the cost of the Mobil 1.
Any experience with the Castrol GTX? Thoughts?
