I have one barrel of John Deere 15-40 Plus 50 oil. I use it in every engine I own. I have done so for over fifteen years that the Plus 50 oil came out. 1990 Dodge W350 5.9 Cummins 350,000 mile, 1990 Olds 98 3800 226,000 miles, 2001 Grand AM 3400 196,000 miles, 2006 Chev K3500 Duromax 265,000 miles. Wife"s 2008 Dodge Challenger has had the 15-40 every since the first oil change.
I live in Northern Iowa. I think the biggest thing is if you warm your engine up before driving. If you jump in and take off like a drag race then you would want a thinner oil. My wife and I both let our vehicles warm up a few minutes before driving them in cold weather. It must work as I have never had a bottom end engine failure in my sixty years. Most of my cars and trucks have had over two hundred thousand miles on them before we quit driving them.
