Default 2004 Dakota

Hello

I just unpgraded from my 92 dakota to a 2004 dakota.
4.7l 4x4 club cab sport.
The dealer I bought it from had all the fluids changed before I got it. It has 106 000 km on it and as far as I know does not have synthetic in it.
I was wondering do you guys recommend synthetic or not? Also what brand of oil do you guys like, as well as spark plugs and axle oil?
I was alos wondering what kind of fuel mileage you guys are getting?
Thanks for all the help.

98 Dakota Sport 5.2L V8. Champion Doublt Platinum spark plugs, and Quaker State Synthetic. As far as I know, synthetic oil just prolongs the life of things. Its better for the engine and everything else that has moving parts. If I were you i'd switch over. You get better life out of things. Oh yeah, and 20mpg.
