Is Motorcraft 5W30 Full Synthetic available in 5-QT jugs like Synthetic Blend?

[BruceB]

I see synthetic blend advertised all over the place in 5QT jugs, but how about full synthetic? Does it just come in quarts? If available in 5QTs, where to buy? I'm looking to switch from synthetic blend to full synthetic but also looking for the most economical way to do so. I'm only interested in using Motorcraft oil. Thanks for any advice.

I have seen it in 5qt jugs at my local Walmart. Your area might have it. Check it out.

Not according to Ford. 5W-30 full synthetic is only available in quart bottles and 55 gallon drums. https://www.motorcraft.com/us/en_us...sae-5w-30-full-synthetic-motor-oils.html/1000

I have only found the Motorcraft 5w30 full synthetic online in quart bottles. I buy a case at a time with a couple of oil filters. None of the local auto parts stores or large retailers carries Rotorcraft full synthetic. Frustrating.

I MADE OIL CHANGES AT 800 MILES - IN MY BRONCO SPORT AND RANGOR RAPTOR. MY OIL CHANGE ON THE RR WAS WITH SYNTHETIC BLEND BUT WILL BE GOING TO MOBILE ONE FULL SYNTHETIC,WHEN I GET TO 5,000 MILES. ON MY WIFES BRONCO AT THE 800 MILES CHANGE USED MOBLIE ONE…I THINK THIS WILL HELP THE LIFE OF THE TURBOS AND COLD WEATHER WE HAVE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE (cheap insurance)

And I'm sure you did an internet search, looks like josephp732 is correct and nothing larger than Qt. size for home owners (perhaps it was in the past and they discontinued the larger size).
However, you might do an internet search for best 5W30 full synthetic motor oil and make a decision for your Ranger from there. After an hour checking into it, I went with Mobil 1 Advanced Full Synthetic motor oil instead. Just my 2 cents worth...

It looks like the case of 12 quarts is the way to go. Where are you buying it from? I'm not seeing the case of 12 on amazon or walmart. I'm seeing lots of 6 through 10 but not 12. Thanks

Never mind. Just found it on amazon: Amazon.com: Ford Genuine Fluid XO-5W30-QFS SAE 5W-30 Full Synthetic Motor Oil - 1 Quart Bottle - Pack of 12 (12) : Automotive

That's $8.24 per quart. Lowest I have seen it for.

Ouch that highway robbery. I have used this in all my vehicles. It's made by Shell. Normally get it on sale for around $30 so $6 a quart/litre.

Getting very close to Amsoil Signature prices. Amsoil OE is less expensive.

You were hallucinating. Full Synthetic 5w30 is not sold in gallon containers even directly from Ford. Walmart also doesn't carry Full Synthetic 5w30 in any size container - even what they have on their website is all random marketplace sellers.

Best place I have found to get it is directly from a dealership. They always have it in stock and around here it is cheaper than online pricing.

A little off the subject but doesn't the Raptor require synthetics only no semi synthetic?

Not at all. It comes from the factory with Motorcraft 5w30 synthetic blend from what I understand. I use full synthetic for the longer intervals.

Does my 24 STX 2.3 require full syn or blend? What intervals are recommended for either? My driving is mainly city type and parkway with heavy traffic stop and go for about 150 miles weekly.
