Man I'm the only one that runs Royal Purple so far....I love it though, have used it in all of my vehicles. It does the job nicely...

Delo 400 is the best oil out there day in and day out IMHO.

I have run Amsoils 15/40 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil in the winter before...little quicker quieter smoother start up since the synthetic pour point is almost 20 degrees colder...-43 vs -23 of the Delo.

Delo 400 has one of highest Flash points too...460 degrees if I remeber correctly. The Amsoil was 453??? LOL.

Day in Day out Delo 400 is good to go. Stinks the least too!

Valvoline Premium Blue

Valvoline Premium Blue is what I run 99% of the time, unless there is a huge sale on Rotella which then i'll run that.

I'm suprised it wasn't a choice. Is Valvoline difficult to get in some places? I know you can't find that schaffers brand ANYWHERE around here. Rotella, Valvoline, Delo and even royal purple can be found just about any place.

Mike.
