freebeard, for me for this winter, I'm thinking that the 5W20 edged out the 5W30 for cold viscosity, and did a lot better that the 0Ws for wear and lubricity. For summer, I'd probably go back to 5W30.
A block heater with either would be best. Still trying to decide about the energy use of that, and convenience with vehicle outside and in snowstorms. Cords tend to get buried, and the plastic insulation shatters. Plus moisture in the contacts....
BTW, this truck has not had synthetic in the past, so there should be an improvement there right of the bat.
