Hint. Wait until a VERY cold day. Start your F, listening to the initial clacking of the chain links as the oil pressure builds up. That's why SOA wants 0w20 oil in North America...just so owners don't complain. The international spec is a more prudent 5w30 synth to protect at higher temps and to reduce consumption.
