Shell Rotella T5 10-30
Anyone use it? From what Ive seen it looks to be a great oil.
No brand bashing or such, just opinions on this oil.
Thanks..

I've been using the Rotella T-6 5w-40. I really like it and the truck seems to run really smooth and start easier since the switch. I would probably just run Rotella-T (dino), but I don't put tons of miles on my truck and lots of short trips and cold starts so I don't mind the extra cost. I don't know anyone running the T5, but I think it would be a good choice if you want an upgrade without paying up for the full synthetic. All 3 are at the local Walmart and sometimes cheaper at Autozone/O'reilly's if they're on sale.
From all of my research, it seems like the Rotella line is pretty good stuff across the board.

I always figure the full synthetic stuff has an edge at the extreme temps for burning or coking. Been running the T6 in both trucks and my JD tractor as well.
