It takes 5w-20. Best one? Best for what application?
I'd say go with M1 5w-20 and change it every 5k miles if you want peace of mind and feel the need to run a syn oil. If you want to go cheap, then go with a dino such as Motorcraft. Most of the 5w-20 oils are well built. If you do a search you'll find even more answers and greater discussion.

"What kind of oil" is always such a subjective post...
I personally run a full synthetic 0w20 oil. I can't reccomend one oil over another. I do reccomend a full synthetic oil however.
It depends on your climate, and how you drive. There's a great website, I think it's the oildrop, or something like that... great resource for information on oils.
As Flashlightboy said, do some searches for more information and what other people are doing.

Rep Power: 0 I personally run RL 5w-20 and the M1-110 filter with a change at every 5k or 6 months, whichever comes first.
