Due to extenuating circumstances, I have a 2012 2.5 that will need to idle for hours everynight. And be driven during the day. Basically, never shut down. What would a good setup be to do this? Less than 50k miles. Would synthetic mobil 1 and good plugs do it?

Far as I can remember, gas engines can idle for longer. Especially these newer ones.
Is that a ecoboost?

Should be fine then. The ecoboost get a high level of fuel dilution in the oil.
So yeah, run a synthetic and I would change it a little sooner than the recommended interval.
