Dont you think if it was good for a car it would be branded so? Read up on it. Its ment for a desile, that revs to 5k on a good day. Thats the newer ones. There a million times more dirty. That rotella does not have the cleaning agents a motor oil does.

Don't you mean
diesel? And also thicker oil may not pull the utmost performance out of a motor but it does somewhat prevent oil consumption and extends engine life. In our cars, almost all of them nearing 200k miles or more, if the engine hasn't been rebuilt the bearings/rings/everything else have loosened up. The thicker oil can help fill up that space. Also diesel oil has a higher sulfur content, which is better for your valvetrain.
