I put enough miles/hours on my trucks and diesel equipment that typically change oil 2x a year and if I have found a good deal on some 15w40 that gets used in the warm months and 5w40 in the cold. Still have Delvac 1300 in the ole Dodge though this year just have to remember plug her in! Rubberchicken what full synth 15w40 and 20w50 do you like? I think the only full syn 15w40 i have seen I think was Royal Purple but have seen synth blend 15w40s around.
I have friends just north of Flushing with a few 8.1s, and Delacroix is all those trucks see, with both over 250k now.....
