The G2 Raptor oil filter is FL500S, just in case someone reads this and assumes incorrectly.

I sure hope someone isn't looking at a 2 year old post and assuming it applies to a truck that wasn't even created yet.

I've noticed that Ford has started specifying 5w-30 for the 6.2l Super Duty engines as of the 2016 model year with no major engine changes that I'm aware of. Anyone have any insight into why this change was made and why they don't backspec the 5w-30 for the pre-2016 vehicles with the 6.2l? I wonder if they were seeing premature or higher wear in certain duty cycles with the slightly thinner 5w-20 that was previously recommended for the 6.2l?
I haven't seen anything abnormal in my oil analysis, but I wonder if it's prudent to jump to 5w-30 at some point?
