Conoco vs Rotella Oil

[Ritothebull]

Is there some other brand (1gal 15w40 synthetic) you can get shipped to your door for $19?

Probably not but some folks will still probably argue about oil.

what's better than this blend with a rebate???

Amazon.com: Shell ROTELLA T5 15W-4 Synthetic Blend Diesel Engine Oil, 1 Gallon: Automotive

What rebate?
You can get the t6 off amazon $19 or 20 shipped. Home depot has it for $22 plus tax.

 

[thekkfan]

T5 blend is $15.97 BEFORE $5/gal rebate. T6 is $19.97 BEFORE $7/gal rebate both on Amazon.

Either product is a win, with up to 4 rebates per person/household through 12/31.

I like the Rotella T6 but I have used up all the allowed rebates :confused3:

Most oils exceed manufactures specs, Rotella, Mobil 1, Amsoil and on down the line, they all work.. I use Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5w40 year round, it's easy to buy locally and does the job..

What would be a better oil to use........ Conoco Fleet Supreme Ed or Rotella T4 engine oil? Either brand I’ll be using 15w40.

To answer this question, You would need a VOA.

Advertising is just hype to sell a product. It works on buyers that believe the hype !

Thanks for the info on the rebate. Maxed out my allotted ammount and a family members.

I use Rot T 15-40 for old Fords and 5-40 full syn for my red ones. I burned Conoco gas (along with others) when I was a kid but haven't heard nor seen the badge for 60 years. Would I be better off with Conoco? Don't know; for one thing I don't know of any for sale around here. Do I need to run full syn in my new equipment? Probably not. Then why do I do it? I don't know. Really, at 77 it's a waste of money. I'll die before I wear out any of these tractors and my kids are urbanites!

I hadn't used it in years and while I was reading this it popped into my head, I can't even remember how long ago it was or what it got put in but Conoco had an oil called Polar Start and we used it in the winter in a few engines.
