Oil question.

So, reading through the 6.7 forum, I see lots of oil posts. Looks like the favorite is Rotella T6. Fair enough, but no one ever mentions Mobil 1 5w40. I usually used M1 on all my cars as Walmart has it for around 25 bucks for a 5 quart jug. They have the 5W40 4 quart jugs for around 26. Seems reasonable. Anything wrong with M1?

Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel 5W-40 ....I use it every oil change, I change my oil every 5000 miles. I also use Optil Lube Oil Fortifier every oil change...I also buy my Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel oil at Walmart it's a little over $26.00 for a gallon, O'Riely auto parts has Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel oil on sale for $24.99 a gallon. Last year O'Riely auto parts had Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel on sale for $19.99 a gallon, I think most people look at the cost of Mobil 1 ......and decide to purchase other oil....
