Hey guys, I recently bought a new 2017 F-150 with the 2.7 ecoboost. I am getting close to my first oil change and I would like some oil recommendations. The owners manual suggests “premium full synthetic 5W20.” The truck is used for a lot of short trips throughout the week with one or two longer tips (100 miles round trip). We also use the truck for traveling Simi-regularly.i live in Deep South Texas close to Corpus Christi where it gets real hot and not very cold. I don’t use the truck for hauling or pulling, but I do have a tendency to put the pedal down. Average highway speed is 80.
I’ve been thinking about Royal Purple just because I know a guy who is a mechanic for the border patrol down here and he said they use it for their trucks and suv’s With 16,000 mile oil change intervals. However, they change the filter every 4,000 I believe.
What I’m looking for is something that will give me great protection for the Turbos and auto start/stop.
