Plus, I could swear my engine was "louder" when I was running TDT in it....(which I did for about 15-20k)....the last 45k or so I have been on Rotella....and it runs perfect.
I do my changes every 4,000 to 4,500 miles....so the type of oil I use is probably less important.....cost is though, as I am using like 10-12 gallons a year just for my car.....and another 4 for the 300E.

I buy my Rotella at Autozone as well for $20 which is the cheapest I have found (suprisingly even cheaper than the farm supply which has other oils cheaper than most auto chain stores). I didn't know about the rewards card. I'm coming close to oil changes for both the burb and the SD soon. That is 4 gallons right there. I'm signing up for the rewards card. Thanks for the tip!
