There are some really neat HD 10/30 oils available but they only come in 30- 55 gallon drums.
The Delvac1300S
the following has pour points of around -45F
Phillips
Two Exxons,a XD-3 and a syn blend XD-3 Elite
Conoco has one ect.
Interesting that Exxon had a 0/40 HD oil for a very short while available in quarts and gallons,it's on their website but not available.
FWIW I went to our local Exxon/Mobil Distributor and bought a bulk 5 gallon pail( 96 cents a quart
) of the Exxon 10/30 XD-3,non syn yesterday and have sent a sample to the Schaeffers Lab for a look see.
It specs out pretty darn good on the data sheet but I have to stop for awhile now
,,I finally found and ordered a bunch of Conoco's Syncon 10/30 full PAO Passenger car oil and some of John Deeres 0/40 HD oil" made by Chevron" and am sitting on big chunk of Phillips 15/40- racing oil and their 10/30 Turbo oil,Castrol R4 5/40,Motul 10/40 and a some of the Synergyn oils and additves I have not used up from years ago.
We are are not driving as many miles as we have in the past but I am still buying oil like we were Chevron has some 0/30 I want but I will have to wait 6 months to get it on the next truck,,thats ok,I'm set
it seems.
