I always had my oil changed at my Ford dealer. I then switched to Mobil1 full synthetic. After 1500kms yes 1500 my truck started to leak a large amount of oil from the pan area. I have now switched back to Ford 5W-20.

Amsoil 5w-30 Series 3000 Oil in both '99 (348,000 miles) and '02 (152,000) Powerstrokes with dual bypass filters, '99 has over 70K miles on the oil change, by oil analysis.
Also running Amsoil in both 6 speed trannys, transfer cases, and Differentials.

Amsoil 5w-30 in the 2010 Chevy Impala (46,000 miles), with Amsoil ATF in the tranny.

Of course, I am a dealer for Amsoil, so I have it available and it is a great oil.
