I use Pennzoil 10w-30..... No need to use 5w because it never gets below 0 in my area...

penzoil and fram are the two worst things you can do to your ram...castrol is a great oil but i use mobil and mopar filters are cheap to buy but if you cant wix is also a great filter. if i were to use a syn i would run RP its good stuff and made in TEXAS so its great
