Check Ford’s specs for oil, I believe a full synthetic is required; a blend won’t cut it.Kendall GT-1 synthetic blend, in whatever viscosity Ford recommends. I have never been a brand loyal guy when it comes to, well pretty much anything, but everything I have seen says that this oil should net me the best return on engine longevity.
Royal purple.........Amsoil.... edit: no equivalent
Good thinking. Just checked the manual and it says as long as it meets the "Ford WSS-M2C962-A1" standard it's good to go. Blend it is (I like the way a blend holds additives in suspension better than a group III or group IV does).Check Ford’s specs for oil, I believe a full synthetic is required; a blend won’t cut it.
Yep, this.Whatever full synthetic is on sale at the autoparts store.
I stand corrected. Just checked the Maverick manual again and the Hybrid requires 0W20 Full Synthetic. This will make it easier since my wife's 2015 Civic also uses 0W20.I have researched the Warren Oil full synthetic products (WalMart. Amazon, Costco) pretty extensively. IMHO the Costco full synthetic is a great product and has a great price. I use the Costco 0w20 it in my 2015 Civic and the 5w30 in my Audi; the Costco 5w30 full syn will be my choice in my Maverick.
As a veteran of car enthusiast forums since the early days of the Internet, I feel your pain.The trucks haven't even been delivered yet, and an oil thread has already happened. This is the bane of every car/truck/motorcycle/tractor forum I belong to.
