I live in FL so does the winter viscosity rating really matter? Manual calls for 10W50 but Walmart sells valvoline 20W50 full synthetic JASO MA2 for $6.67.
10W stays fluid at colder temps than 20W... like negative 20 degrees instead of negative 5, or something like that.
Really, the "W" should remind you that in winter, in a cold place, you may have to consider it.
In your case, unless the climate in Florida changes very drastically, you won't have to worry about the difference between 10W- and 20W-.
