Default Anybody use Castrol 5W50?

Just curious. I've been using T6, and am quite pleased, but figure 5W50 would give me the same cold start up performance, and maybe enhanced protection at temperature.
So, anybody out there using it? Impressions?
Thanks.

You're talking the Syntec right?
They stopped making it so any you find will be old stock and will get harder and harder to find.
One of the reasons I like the Rotella is you can find it anywhere.
I have used the Castrol Syntec 5w-50 in my Montero when I had it, thats what I used in the winter and then Syntec 20w-50 in the summer, great oil.
