Which oil to use

I run the T6 in warm weather and M1 0w40 in the winter. Here are the differences I see switching back and forth:
T6: Tends to cause or at least increase leaks. Nothing terrible but noticeable.
0W40: At idle or in traffic, engine runs 2-5 degrees higher. Not while driving though. Fuel economy is .5MPG higher while using it. Engine seems a touch more quiet.
While running M1, I have to add 1/2qt between changes. With T6 I have to add a qt.

I was running Rotella for the last 18,000 miles, only issue is my truck sounded like a sewing machine. Rattling like crazy.

Seems like it worth a shot.

Im using M1 0w40 as well in the winter time. M1 is quieter though, will say that.
