I have been using Motorcraft Oil in many vehicals throughout the family both Ford and non-Ford. If you research you will find that Motorcraft oils have a good lab rating, and from personal use I have found that engine were is minimal if at all evident. Heck I even use this stuff in my lawn mower now. It is a slightly more expensive than most standard oils, but it is cheaper than full synthetic. I pay around $2.76 for a quart. Conoco-Phillips is a respectable company with many acheivments that have been brought to the motor oil industry, If I recall there oil was and may still be used in Formula racing. If your oil is getting dark quickly, then the oil is doing its job of encapsulating harmful deposits thus protecting your engine. Just because your oil is dark by your expected oil change interval does not mean it is not protecting your engine. Get an oil analysis before you jump to conclusions and rate ANY oil poorly.

Motorcraft is Kendall it is red bottles the Kendall is in the black bottles.Simple as that.Firestone has oil change specials using this oil. Bulk oil who knows, the your Ford stealer uses the red bottles instead of the bulk, your lucky and can go for it. Motorcraft can be used in any make car, just as Kendall can.

I have ran Motorcraft oil in all my vehicles from ford Diesels to Massey Fergusson Tractors. I have talked to diagnostic labs and have sent oil samples to them. I sent them some extremely dirty looking oil from a 302 V-8 and they said the oil was still O.K. According to the company the faster the oil darkens the better of a job it is doing of encapsilating foreign particles that damage your engine. I love Motorcraft Everything!!!

700,000 miles on a 2001 Ford Excursion with a 7.3 diesel engine Motorcraft 15w40 oil changed every 7,500 miles. No engine failures at all. 1 Altenator and 1 Transmission.

Ironically, I had a 1973 Ford Mustang and it absolutely hated Motorcraft oil; the difference with feel and performance was remarkably better when I changed over to Pennzoil.

my neighbor bought a 1987 f150 300 6 cyl new using motorcraft oil changing every 5000 miles and i replaced the timing gears at 214k and it was clean and non tarnished like a new engine. now i use it in all my vehicles with zero problems.

Ford does not make motor oil. Conoco-Phillips, Inc manufactures the oil for Ford.

Tried it and lost color very quickly-bad in winter aswell. Gets thick easily.

My wife had regular oil changes done to her 1995 Explorer at a local Ford dealership. They used 5W-20. After 230,000 miles, we replaced the timing chain and my son is now driving it. Never had any problems with the engine as a result of oil failure. The key is changing the oil regularly. I gave the oil a 4 star rating as I don't get that excited about motor oil. :)

I have had this oil once in my car and it was terible. After about 2800 miles the oil was so dirty it was hard to believe, this is just a cheap oil that Ford dealerships across the country use because it is cheap.

Anything made by Ford is the best

This was more important back in the 1950s and 60s when there was more reconstituted and lesser quality oils on the market. Today many oils are made by the same manufacturer and in the same plants, they're simply put in bottles with different labels. If you don't have a loyalty to any particular brand then all you need to know is that the oil you choose meets the API rating for your engine, although some turbo cars require an oil specifically formulated for vehicles equipped with turbochargers. Regardless of what make or model car you drive, if there is any doubt about quality or proper fit, you can never go wrong using the manufacturer's oil and filters.

Oil is oil in my opinion.....I have no reason to ever buy Motorcraft however, Ford makes this stuff and I am not into anything made by Ford, they could probably even mess oil up if givin the chance..... I am kinda just joking, I'm sure it is as good as any, as long as you change your oil every 3000 miles your doing ok.
