Anyone use this... It gets excellent ratings from "Project Farm" and "That oil Guy" seems reasonably priced... much cheaper than Amsoil..

Just asking for the 2019 XT5. It will be the first oil change since I bought it.. I want to treat it nice.. It has 58k on it..

I use it in the 4.6 STS and have used its variants since 2005. No problems and excellent oil mileage (< 1 quart in 6,500 miles) with WIX filters.

You would have to drive the car to 500,000 miles to see ANY difference between a modern synthetic and AMSOIL - don't get me wrong - AMSOIL is good oil, but do you need it for a general purpose daily driver - NO!

FWIW the Ultra Platinum is but one of the fast-growing group of tough engine oils that is exclusively refined from natural gas.
