Synthetic 5w40 has been working for me very well in my service truck. I also add two bottles of Rev-X every oil change. An added expense, but well worth it. The first time I added Rev-X, the engine got better with every mile I drove.

I also run rotella t-6 synthetic 5w-40. My 2003 6.0l has 195,000 miles, since I started using it, it starts great in the winter time! I had it start one time at -27 without being plugged in, it started like there was nothing to it.
