I think I'd choose it over 0W-40 on the basis of its full dollop of anti-wear, better HTHS, and less viscosity modifier. Doing so, however, sacrifices the desireable GM LL spec. Some of this stuff you need to take on faith, since they just don't release their formula in full detail. Judging from the labels, though, I think AmSoil 5W40 is the one to beat. It has GM LL 025 a/b qualification, Mercedes 229.high, important for a demonstrated low level of chain wear, ACEA A3/B3/B4 spec, and most (if not all) of the current heavy duty diesel specs. Only negative I can see (if this is a negative for you) is the need to actually deal with a human being when purchasing it rather than simply popping into a big-box auto parts store.
