I use Motorcaft synthetic oil and filter. It's what the manufacturer recommends. There are probably 50 other oils out there that are just fine for regular driving and the occasional burnout. I just tend to stick with what the people who designed the engine would recommend over what someone on the internet does, unless there is a clear reason not to. And if you disagree, you do you.
Reviews of Motorcraft parts For Business

The motorcraft wipers I get from the parts desk at my local ford dealership are the best wipers I’ve ever put on a vehicle. They do an excellent job and last a long time. I usually only have to buy a new set every few years when I get a new windshield.
switch to 5w20 as according to fords bulletin for oil, i been using motorcraft synthetic blend for 26 yrs
What's wrong with the Motorcraft gear oil? Serious question. I've done a drain and fill and it operates great.
As far as replacements I've had good luck with Rock Auto Sticking to the better brands like Motorcraft, AC Delco, Remy, and Bosch.
I also have a 2018 Sport. Just changed mine at 35k miles. It had orange in it but the replacement is Motorcraft yellow. I highly recommend you do not use anything else. The motorcraft coolant is better than the ones you will find in stores. I used the 50/50 mix and was able to get the orange out with 4 gallons of repeated drain and fill. The orange and yellow are compatible but the new yellow has more corrosion inhibitors.
'17 f150 5.0l with 150k running 5w-20 motorcraft. Not a single problem and this was used to haul a 12' steel enclosed trailer loaded from day 1 and the wind blows a LOT here. Doesnt use a drop of oil.
I heard from an old ford mechanic once that ford designed their ignition system around the motor craft plugs and no other brand plug will run right if installed. Since then only motorcraft or autolite in my fords.
All of our 2022 fleet f250’s needed new batteries within 18 months of use. Steer clear of motorcraft batteries as well.
Burnt out 4 motorcraft Starter Solenoids on my fox body in like a week.
