There are no bad 5W-20, ILSAC/Ford-approved oils. Wix and Motorcraft are both good filters and have the thread-end bypass and silicone anti-drainback valve Ford prefers.
The answer is pretty much do whatever.

MotorCraft SemiSyn 5W-20 would be great.
A Motorcraft filter and 5 quart jug of Motorcraft 5W20 should be about $15 at Wal-Mart. You really can't go wrong with that.

If that's the Motorcraft filter you're talking about, none of the Wal marts carry any of them. Just the Fram and SuperTech [censored].

Wal-Marts around here always have plenty of Motorcraft FL400S filters in stock.
