Mines a lot older....2004 CTD, but I use Rotella 15W40, and NAPA Gold filters. I change mine a lot more often.....every 5K miles, and do a fuel filter every other oil change. Air filter once a year since my truck mainly runs up and down the interstate and is rarely in dusty conditions. Your newer truck may require a different oil, so check the owners manual for all the info.

My 2010 Cummins requires a full synthetic oil. So I use Valvoline 5W-40 full synthetic changed every 3,000 miles. I do a lot of in town driving and feel the relatively short change interval is best (I bought the truck new and it just turned over 51,000 miles). As for filters, I use NAPA Gold filters for fuel, air, and oil.
