(But 0W40 puts less stress on the whole system at start-up, that's why I think a lot of people go with it)

Exactly. WA state is too cold to be using a 10w.

Burning/consuming oil is the same thing.

I'm pretty much set on changing out to Redline 0w-40 on my next change. After doing some research on this topic, tons of people in all kinds of different car forums swear by this weight oil.
