Okay-so my first oil change is coming up. On all my other cars I have always used conventional oil. However, given the fact my Mustang is the first car I am even considering keeping long term I am wondering about synthetic oil.

I need your guys experiences and opinions: pros and cons on each, likes and dislikes (price is a given of course). Any links to research and independent studies (which seem to be as rare as a Sacramento Kings Finals appearance) would be appreciated.

Once I hear more, then I can decide if I hand my Ford dealer a box of synthetic oil when I go in for my free maintenance over the next three years.

I use standard 10w/20 oil, semi sythetic, unless you live in an incredibly cold climate, this will do. J
