The 2016 Ford F-150 with a V6 Ecoboost has an oil capacity of 6 quarts including the filter. Ford recommends using SAE 5W-20 oil for this engine, which is chosen for its thinner viscosity, allowing it to flow through the engine more easily and provide quicker starts in cold weather. If you reside in a hot climate and drive primarily in such conditions, you may opt for 5W-30 as it maintains its integrity longer than 5W-20. However, if you use synthetic oil, the climate should not be a significant factor as both viscosities perform well in any weather.
In the 2016 Ford F-150 with a 2.7L engine, you'll need 6 quarts of oil, including the oil filter.
