I've been using Valvoline Maxlife's 10w-40 in the winter, and their 20w-50 in anything wrong with that? I've heard a lot of people swear by the Rotella 15w-40, thinking about trying it.

The oil pan on my car has never come off (at least since I have owned it).
An extractor (Tempo "Oil Boy") makes life so much easier and I actually look forward to oil changes -- doing them more frequently than necessary.

15/40 Rotella T Dino- 7 qts exactly. 5K interval changes.
Car has 155K k miles and climbing and has NO NOTABLE USE BETWEEN CHANGES. Heck, oil looks almost as good coming out as the stuff going in. Can't beat that with a Tank. This is one hell of an automobile. rjp
