Oil analysis study

Somebody recently posted a comparo chart/study of how the popular brands of oil compare with eachother but I can't seem to find it through a search... anyone know what I'm talking about? Rotella T is going up in price compared to the other oils so I'm considering switching brands on the next change.

Danny posted the thread. My search skills are hit and miss. If I find it, I'll let you know. If not, that's at least a hint on where to look.

Edit: Found it. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...-to-worst.html

Just glancing over the report, I notice that the comparison is almost perfectly broken down by oil rating... IE oils with a certain rating ranked best, oils with a different rating ranked poorer. Definitely needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
