Same oil that's always been in it, Motorcraft 5w20. The oil level hasn't dropped noticeably. There's just the occasional drips on the driveway and the slight burned oil smell when I get out of the car. The smell is not noticeable from inside.
Do yourself and your engine a favor...switch to 5W-30 oil, preferably Mobil 1 5W-30. That 5W-20 garbage Ford is pushing is too thin to protect anything at even normal operating temperature.
