what year is it?

It should say in your owner's manual, but my gen3 runs on 10w30, which I would imagine yours does as well, but I can't say definitely, since later years had small revisions made.

As far as brand, that's purely subjective, I'm running Amsoil Turbo 10w30 in mine at the moment and I couldn't be happier.
