Like the dealer doesnt use synthetic so what does the truck take. It's mainly my fiance's truck, she wants to know a good brand and what type.

thanks

What??? If its a Dodge Dealer the factory fill on several of their models is FULL SYNTHETIC.
5w20 Full synthetic...I use Penzoil ultra because its the factory fill on Vipers and almost all SRT's

I use royal purple hps, can get it affordably on amazon. But most high end synthetics will be fine.

I found out very recently during a 5AM visit to Wal-Mart for oil, that they have a great selection (Royal Purple, Mobil 1, Penzoil Plat/Ultra, etc), and the best prices for oil out of all the other auto parts stores. I was genuinely shocked. The oil filter selection could use some work though, but ehhh.

Personally I think oil discussions should be banned from the internet. It's akin to religion. The only significant difference from one to another is marketing. As for the run of the mill V8s that Chrysler produces, not one of them requires synthetic oil. Oil makers will be happy to convince you otherwise, but your 100K mile power train warranty is safe with regular crude.
