What is the best type of oil for a Ford Ranger truck?

I've recently purchased a Ford Ranger and I am wondering what type of oil I should use. I've heard conflicting information from different sources, so I am curious to hear from someone with experience owning a Ford Ranger.

I have been using synthetic oil in my Ford Ranger and it has been performing great. It provides better protection and lasts longer than traditional oils.

I've been using conventional oil in my Ford Ranger and it has been doing just fine. It's also cheaper than synthetic and gets the job done.

I would recommend using the type of oil recommended in your owner's manual. It's always best to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for optimal performance and longevity of your vehicle.
