Default High Mileage Oil Change

My 2000 S70 GLT SE has 168,000 miles on it. What weight oil is recommended in a Volvo with this kind of miles on it? Hot south florida climate to consider also.

Never a question stupid. Just keep it changed and the climate determines if it needs a different weight.
