I just did my first one, and I went with Mobil 1 synthetic and Filter.. They had a good deal on the 5qt jug. Got a free 12.00 filter and just had to buy the 6th quart.

Mobile 1 syn since the day I got the T 2 & 1/2 years ago. It holds up well in the AZ heat.

Just purchased whatever Dino D#ck oil is on sale for the spring/summer and use that with a cheap filter.

Haven't seen any hate for the K&N oil filter?? I use it in my truck and have had no issues. I know a few who won't use the air filter because it has oil on it that could get into the intake.

Don't feel bad when when it runs all over the place....that's normal.

Hah! It only runs all over the place when the wind suddenly kicks up when I'm doing my oil change. Otherwise, it's not an issue. I have more trouble getting a face full of dirt when I remove the skid plates, but cleaning them up is part of my routine.

Used to run Valvoline DuraBlend (a blend of dino and synthetic) but have gone to Mobil 1 every 5000 miles. Truck seems to like it. Also do a tire rotation at each oil change.

AC Delco filter

But if you don't over oil it then you shouldn't have a problem. I know I have heard of a few guys on here that won't ever run them for one reason or another. I love mine!

And I too ran durablend on one round just to not shock the engine as much I guess.. Been running Mobil 1 ever since and the truck loves it!
