2004 F-150 Oil recommendations

A quick question about OIL. My new 4.6 ltr calls for 5W-20 Oil. I like Penzoil but I have not found any sources in the Augusta, Ga area that stock theis grade oil. Would 5W-30 be a suitable alternative? Thanks and appreciate ya'lls advice. Happy Holidays.

I would recommend to use the Motorcraft 5/20 for awhile while under warranty and keep your reciepts and maintain good records.

The Pennzoil 5/20 will show up eventually .

Enjoy your new ride .

Thumbs up

Thanks guys I really appreciate your input. I have every intention of using the Motocraft 5/20 for the first 36K miles and as suggested the Penzoil should be on the market by then. Again thanks and best wishes to all for the up-comming holidays.
