    BUILT, not bought...
    welcome man.

    I'd recommend doing a search for oil & filter threads.

    This might answer the who/what/when/where/why, and the how.

    Welcome, synthetic oil is great for your truck, Aamsoil is one of the best, but its a bit pricey, Mobil 1 is a pretty good oil, thats what I run, honestly though any quality synthetic that gets changed on proper intervals is going to help your truck run for a long time. At the age and mileage that you have I would still use 5w30 unless you start to see increased oil consumption, then switch to something heavier like 10w30.
