Nope, Even though it's an SB oil, it is 100% Synthetic.

OIC, my fault, sorry!
But still strange for me, why to put "BLEND" in the name if it 100% synthetic...
cheers,

That's a good question. Probably has to do with the fact that there are different kinds of synthetic. Ester-based (my favorite, smells like candy), polyalpha-olefin based, etc. Even some hyper-refined (or hydrocracked) mineral oil is able to be called synthetic, like Castrol Syntec.
I didn't look into what the Rotella uses as it's base stock, because I don't think it matters since I change my oil every 5000kms anyway, but that info could be in those links I posted earlier. Rotella could be a blend of any of these "100%" synthetic components.

Update.
I've got a call, my 4*4L order is ready to pick up.
I am not feeling well about it, cause I am selling truck to Ontario and railway does not allow to ship anything inside.
So I do not need it this oil anymore.
Please PM me for details, I'll give pick up address.
For Great Vancouver area
Good luck!

Congrats on selling. I am still waiting for the right person. As far as the oil goes you could put it on craigs list for any diesel vehicle.
