    Ford Excursion V-10 98k should I go 5w40?

    Well I went with PP 5w30 and PureOne for now. I had to change it so we could use it to tow this weekend. I thought long about using 5w20 but my Excursion is my workhorse and I'm not sure about going to a 5w20 with 98k as well as being third owner it had 10w30 in it when I bought it. I'm not...

    Ford Excursion V-10 98k should I go 5w40?

    I currently use MotorCraft 10w30 synblend with PureOne filter in my V-10 Ex. with 98000 miles. I use it to tow my 8000 lb travel trailer and I was thinking of trying a full synthetic 5w40 due to towing. Too heavy? A better suggestion? What do you guys think?
