NYC area oil recommendations?

I have narrowed down my options to M1 0W40, 5W40 (when it becomes available), and 15W50.
Saab Spokane recommends 15W50 in the summer and a 15W50/10W30 mix in the winter months.
Since NY is not that cold in the winter, it seems the 0W40 is a little overkill, despite it being the clear preference on this board.
It seems that 15W50 would be my best choice. Perhaps I would mix in a quart of 5W40 or 0W40 for the winter.
Any comments as to that I should use? Any problems with using 15W50 in the summer? Or all year? Will fuel economy suffer?
Lastly, seems that M1 runs about $4+ per quart. Anyone know of the best pricing for M1?
Thanks for your feedback.
