Default Rotella T Oil Any Good?

hey guys, i was runnin esso xd 15w 40.... had a good supply on it, which now has dried up, .... i noticed that rotella was about 12$ a jug... thinkin of goin to that. Any other cheap favourites I could find at autozone or a big chain store in michigan? thanks!

also, what should be the regular interval to do an oil change on my 2000 6.5L? I just read fram is no good for filters... what should i run for a decent price?
