I run both types.
Rotella 5w40 synthetic and Rotella 15w40 regular. So far great results in everything I have put the stuff in. Stays cleaner longer, great protection, fairly inexpensive in the gallon jugs or by the 55 gal drum.
We used to have a different oil for damn near everything, mostly Valvoline brand stuff. Then when we started adding diesels to the fleet Valvoline didn't really have anything that was designed for the job, so the Rotella worked so well, we just started using it for everything. If it will keep all those big rigs happy for a million miles or more, it really should keep everything else over protected.
The Shell rep was kind enough to send all the different test results for the Rotella, and it exceeds all the requirements of everything we use it in.
