Default 5W20 OIL.....to be or not to be?!?!

My 02 Accord coupe ex 5 spd's manual book says that it requires a 5w20 motor oil. Ive never heard ne hondas using 5w20 and i think that lacks viscosity. I have been following the guidelines given by the manual. Is it okay or should i change to a different grade?

5w20 is Hondas recomendation. I would stick to that.
