Upon closer read of the Ford statement, I believe that you are correct. 10w-30 CK-4/SM is OK. But 10w-30 CK-4/SN is NO GOOD.

I use Valvoline Blue in my Volvo diesels in my boat and have an analysis done every 100 hours. It is never broken down to where it needs replaced. I replace it at 100 but....... That's what I'm running in the truck now as well.

Since all of my oil changes are free at the dealer I guess it will be Motorcraft oil.
