I plan on using Rotilla in our 300 once I get it going. I don't think I'll bother with synthetic year-round, but I am thinking about switching to it from Nov-Feb for better old weather performance. I was talking with a guy who had done some automotive engineering work that included a lot of oil analysis, and as a result of what he said I'm tempted to try Mobil 1 synthetic in some of our gassers that get a lot of miles put on them.
I still haven't quite decided whether the price-performance ratio really works out on synthetic though.
