★ Top Answer
The recommended oil for a 2009 Ford F-150 is 5W-20 with a capacity of 6 quarts. It's important to change your oil regularly, typically every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Neglecting to do so can lead to engine problems. Using high-quality oil is essential for optimal engine performance. Issues with the oil may arise over time, such as a strong burning odor, which should be addressed promptly to prevent potential damage like engine failure or even an explosion. Poor-quality oil can also result in decreased gas mileage and potentially cause a knocking noise from the engine.

here is a rephrased version:
Using SAE 5W-20 oil in your 2009 Ford F-150 ensures the best fuel efficiency and durability. The 4.6L engine requires 6.0 quarts of oil, while the 5.4L engine needs 7.0 quarts for optimal performance. -
How can you distinguish between a 4.6 and a 5.4?

In 2009, a 5.4 engine requires only 6 quarts of oil, not 7. Overfilling is just as harmful as not having enough oil, so it is important to stop advising people to use 7 quarts. The correct amount for a 5.4 engine is 6 quarts.

I disagree with all of you. Even after adding 7 quarts of oil, I still think I am missing about 1 quart.
