Motorcraft 5W20 synthetic blend with a Motorcraft FL820s filter is both good and very inexpensive!

Actually you're supposed to use a thinner oil for cold temperatures. Its easier on your car when trying to start it. I would DEFINITELY get that 10W-40 out of there ASAP.

I've been running Mobile1 0-40 for about 7 years.. or 5 years in this car. I'm not nice to my cars either.
