TML is correct. They use it based on "fuel-efficiency" and to somehow make their "numbers" appear better. Though I, like TML, would not use that grade in anything, numerous manufacturers are recommending it. Fortunately, they are not mandating it. Both the Honda Pilot and the Acura MDX (265 HP, 3.5L V6) recommend 5W-20, as does Ford/Lincoln on several of their new models.
As Dick said, stick with 0W-30 or 5W-30 in Mobil 1 or Amsoil, use a high quality filter, and you'll be fine.
