But I noticed my filler cap says 5W20. Thought that was odd.

Nothing odd at all about the 5/20 weight on your cap. Our 2016 had 5/30 on it. Just my opinion based on professional RV business advice, reading, owners' manual information, etc., ignore anyone who says to use different weights such as 10-40, 20-50, etc. Take comments about what was used at the factory also with some circumspect too. You cannot go wrong with using the suggested weight that is on the filler cap since that is what the engine was engineered to use for many reasons no matter the ambient temperature where you live.
