I run synthetic in our '07 Taurus, but the brand does not matter to me as long as it's synthetic/synthetic blend 5w20. Just got a 5 qt of Maxlife 5w20 yesterday for next week when I'll be changing it.
'07 Taurus 82,000 (81,9 something but close enough). FL400S filter Mobil 1 5W20. I prefer Napa Gold and Purolator but know the OEM brand is better than one that rhymes with slam.

Purolator Classics are another good choice.
I looked at one of those filter boxes when buying oil for the impala. It said "made in China" so I selected the Purolator though the...

It does at that. I had M1 in my Tuarus but it got changed due to a fuel problem after the problem was repaired. Right now has 5w20 Castrol due to $ issues, but hope to change back to M1 next change in March.
I never cared for football nor basketball because all IT is is back and forth. The main reason I don't watch racing as much is for all the greed it has gotten into.
Toyota aside, drivers saying they are going to retire then end up driving somewhere else for another three years? Make up your...
The one we had in our pos Impala worked very well until its "father" (me) reinstalled the dash after a radio replacement and pinched the wire. Still have to fix a couple things with that.
The'66 metallic light green LeMans my father had. Got rid of it because of an "electrical" problem. I wish he would have kept that, as 1. I'd be driving it (still) and 2. I would have been able to be a mechanic.
It doesn't bother me either way. I started to use Mobil 1 in my Taurus but until finances allow had to switch back to regular oil. Besides "creating" jobs, Govt should get the oil/gas/diesel prices down.
Like has been said it should be okay. I want to put synthetic 5w20 in the Taurus at the next change. Impala has a LIM gasket that's bad, so I stay with regular 5w30 in that car.
Impala (03) 103000+ 5w30 Napa Proselect
Taurus (07) 68000 5w20 Napa Proselect.
Will be running a synthetic in the Taurus starting next oil change (July/August).
