synthetic oil is good, but expensive and will still get dirty so I believe that it should be changed on a regular schedule like every 3,000 miles. So I would recommend any name brand oil, just do not mix brands or weights. Use the weight recommended by the mfg. and change often to keep contaminants out of the oil. This and tuneups will help reduce the wear on your engine. i.e. pay now or pay later, especially if you plan to keep the truck a long time.

Mobile 1 is the best. It protects better and lasts four times as long. You do still have to change it when it gets dirty, but it doesn't break down like petroleum based oil.

Use a good quality regular oil (I like Castrol), grade 5w30.

Well if you're driving something that lavished I would think that you would have your own private mechanic! It would be best to give him or her a call.
