These vehicles were built to help you work hard and play harder, and&nbsp;there is more TLC during the manufacturing process to ensure long-lasting dependability. One of the most-praised truck models on the market is the Ford F-150. This truck is known for its performance and dependability, and it is a great choice if you are shopping for a used option. Even with its&nbsp;highly regarded&nbsp;dependability, it is important that you maintain your Ford F-150, and one of the best ways to do that is by giving it an oil change every three months or 3,000 miles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.auctiondirectusa.com\/used-cars-for-sale\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Check Our Pre-owned Inventory<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-vivid-red-background-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.auctiondirectusa.com\/contact-us\">Contact us<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3>Recommended Oil Viscosity for the Ford F-150&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fordservicecontent.com\/Ford_Content\/Catalog\/owner_information\/2020-Ford-F-150-Owners-Manual-version3_om_EN-US_04_2020.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2020 Ford F-150 Owner\u2019s Manual<\/a><\/em><\/strong>, most engine options will use SAE&nbsp;5W-30 engine oil or SAE 0W-30 (for 22-below weather temperatures).&nbsp;Motorcraft&nbsp;brand oil is preferred, but any API (American Petroleum Institute)-certified brand is fine to&nbsp;use.
