I use Mobil 1 0w-30 in all my gas engine rigs,summer and winter. I used 10w-30 and 5w-30 for 20+ years with great results and loved the new 0w-30 for easy starts and almost instant oil pressure in our ND winters. We use it in several HD 1 ton trailer puller pickups that often run for hours on end at near full throttle,so I worried about using that thin oil in summer under those extreme loads. I called 1-800 ask mobil and asked for advice. They said that if 5w-30 and 10w-30 were doing OK,then 0w-30 should be fine. This has proven to be very true.Oil consumption and pressure are the same as with heavier synthetic oil,with no engine problems One of these old trucks has 250,000 miles on it.
