I have read to use only 5/20 penzoil oil in the hemi truck , I just bought it with only 100,000 miles and was wandering what oil everyone uses that doesn't mess with the MDS . I hate penzoil and don't want to use it .

I will third what the other 2 have said, they are on the top of my short list of solid resources to trust. The mds system requires 20w oil, whether it be 0w-20, 5w-20, or etc 20w oil is the dog. Some people choose amsoil, the top of the spectrum of synthetic or walmart sale special if you go with a 20w oil and the relative oil change interval respectively you will be right on track

5W20 good quality dino oil. I ran Mobile 1 from its first oil change in my truck. I burns 2 quarts every 5,000 miles. Changed oil every 5,000 miles from New. It is/was a fairly babied truck.
