What is the 2001 Dodge Durango oil type?

I wanted a cheap, used SUV to tow my boat to the lake and I finally found one on Craigslist. The owner said he changed the oil frequently to keep it running smoothly, and I want to do the same. What oil type do I need for a 2001 Dodge Durango?

If you want to keep your new-to-you SUV running smoothly and effectively haul your boat, the 2001
Dodge Durango
’s oil type is SAE 5W-30. This engine oil performs well under duress, making your boat-hauling excursion one of ease and precision.
Note that when you change the oil, you’re going to need six quarts of 5W-30. Make sure to dispose of the motor oil at a local repair shop or another reputable place in your area.
Towing and hauling can put extra stress on the engine of your car, which means at some point, you’re going to need money for maintenance. To help you save, use the
