Have you noticed the shortage of diesel engine oil in general and Rotella specifically?
I use T6 in motorcycles and my diesel engines. I am in short supply.

i use the t4 in my 7.3 powerstroke and yes , when it comes time for an oil change, it takes a while to find 4 gallons of it.....it went from 15$ a gallon to 24$ a gallon
Tried Sam's? I haven't bought in years, but it have seen it there

I bought 6 gallons at TSC the other day. Some Rotella marked and some the TSC store brand, Traveller, I think.

Amazon has it too, if you're willing to pay the price and buy it from them. If I couldn't find it anywhere else, I'd buy it from them.
cant find it in ohio i use t6 in my Ram crazy times!
I was informed of the coming shortage months ago.
I suggest you purchase enough oil change supplies to last you a few oil changes.
I drive 300 miles a week to and from work. I change my oil at 3K miles and I use walmart brand synthetic oil as it just around $17 per 5 qts.
I already told the wife I was gonna get four or five jugs to cover the vehicles thru the summer.
Yes I know I can go 5K miles or more but my car as 150K miles on it and oil is cheap right now.
I had no idea Tractor Supply Co (TSC ) sold a house brand.......thanks for info
No barrels for bulk users either. Good Luck.
Costco dropped Delo 400 about a year ago and only offers their house brand at half the cost. It's exactly the same spec but no secret, hinted at, ingredient so that's what I'm running now. Cummins takes 3 Gallons.

A friend had same trouble finding Mobil 1 for his diesel too GW
I bought some at Walmart, but that was a couple of months ago. Got the last couple of gallon jugs on the shelf.
Greenies gonna get rid of our diesels by forcing us to run 'em on the old oil until they blow?
I fortunately have five or six 5-gallon jugs out in the barn. Maybe I should put 'em under lock and key?

While I know a lot of people love T6, I doubt you will ever find any proof Delo 400 synthetic is inferior in any way. Heck, Amsoil diesel is probably better.
Was/is Rotella a Shell brand?

Mobil Delvac 15-40 also missing lately from my Runnings store. I thought I had enough for a couple years, but will be out by fall harvest.
The 5 gallon pails are handy for me, but will have to go back to a barrel filled at the local JD dealership. They were about $15 a gallon before the shortages, probably $20 now.
Everyone also needs to keep an eye on the shortage of filters
Going to only get worse. We are back to the Jimmy Carter late 70’s.
I buy Mobil Delvac 1 ESP at Rural King. They have Rotella as well.
