I wanted to post this on the Shell Rotella Gas Truck synthetic engine oil Q&A if a Moderator would oblige. Found it at Wally World and it is competitively priced as they said it would be. They have it at eye level too!

It's a manly looking oil jug.
Will garner much respect from the public as you place it on the check out belt.

If you look closely you will see that thread was locked.

Go ahead and search the VOA threads, I did a VOA on all three variations of RGT. It's nothing spectacular IMHO.
I tend to want to spend a couple bucks more for higher PAO in Mobil1 EP or AP, but, hey, this is a good Shell product, good for about any non-German gasoline engine with those specs. Priced well.

Are you implying that Shell products never get negative posts and completely useless marketing posts for other companies' products don't happen here?

Here is Gas Truck against other Shell owned products. I guess you can decide for yourself. It does have more moly than the others.
Ok.
I have it in my Frontier now. Thought I would try it because it has decent levels of moly, zinc and is on the thick end of the 5w-30 scale. My truck does haul a small travel trailer and spend time off road in the Nevada desert. I'll run a UOA at the oil change and see how it does. No complaints so far.
My Walmart had it for about a month or two, they don't seem to have it anymore. Guess that means nobody bought it.
I put it in my Tahoe for its second oil change. It seemed to have quieted the engine somewhat. Still trying to determine if it was just new oil or it was actually this oil. I'm not one to try to stretch out my oci. I change my oil every 5,000 miles come he'll or high water.
