Whatever they have on sale at Wal-Mart?

:?: :?: :?:

I'd go with 5w30 5w40 or 5w50 - later ones if you beat on it more. If it burns a lot of oil then switch to a 10w30.

Yes, 5W50 has a higher viscosity when it's hot and more of a tolerance to over-heating. Generally it's a better quality base that's needed to maintain the viscosity.
