2002 Lincoln Continental. 10w30 Kendall Titanium, I got on clearance at Autozone. 139,000 miles. The car runs much smoother and quieter than it did on the Castrol Syn-Blend 5w20, I drained out. I think I am keeping it on 10w30 for the rest of its life now.

Owner's manual calls for 4.4qts. Needed 5 qts last time to get to the top mark on the dip stick. Forum posts from other TSX owners vary between 4.5qts to 5 qts.

4.75qts this oil change, but I didn't take the car for a spin after the change to get everything circulated. Will check again tomorrow and may add .25 qt if needed.
