I'd run either motorcraft or Rotella. I assume 15 40 oil? Not sure, I dont own one but thats what I run in my 7.3.

15 W 40 or 5 W 40 oil for the 6.0. I use synthetic oil (Rotella T) and change it every 5000 miles. I can get the oil at Wal Mart for $18.99 per gallon, I think.

Last I checked Wally World the T6 5w40 is running $21+. Good stuff and it's on my recommended oil list!!

Even Wally World prices go up. It has been several months since I bought oil there. That was my best guess.

I just happened to be looking yesterday at oil and saw the prices. Wish I had some cash I would have bought out all the Mobil 1 diesel the store had on the shelves.

Running Valvoline Premium Blue 15w-40 in mine year round and yes it will start in -20* with out being plugged in and my truck has 168k on it. It's not happy when it starts but it starts.
