second that...

I rented a new Ford Taurus a little while ago on a trip to S.F. and the oil filler cap said "0W-20" on it - no mention of synthetic; apparently the Ford engineers have determined that even conventional petroleum oils will do the job in that viscosity rating. So Steve's comments on 0W-30 synthetic look correct.
