Yup. Effectively getting 5 quarts for $12 sounds pretty good to me. That's why I'll be using it for my next oil change in the fall.

I think Supertech has been independently tested and proven to be a pretty good oil. I'm no expert, but I think at some point you're probably splitting hairs. Is Mobil 1 or Valvoline or Amsoil a better oil than Supertech? Probably. But over the course of 100,000 miles, is there going to be...

Anyone else used to think Valvoline wasn't a very good oil brand? I used to see Valvoline bulk oils at many car mechanic shops, and just assumed that it was because it was the cheapest oil they could get away with using.

Plus a $10 rebate via the Mobil 1 website.

Question about Shell V Power. My understanding is that most gas stations have pumps that mix premium and regular fuel at the pump to create a mid-octane fuel. Does anyone know if that's the case with Shell? If so, does that mean the mid-grade Shell likely has somewhere between regular and...

I'm still waiting to see if Mobil 1 Advanced Clean comes close to the performance of Valvoline Restore and Protect. Will be good to have some competition, I think.

Yeah, hopefully there's no shortage. But, it wouldn't surprise me if prices still go up and stay up. Though I suspect, at the very least, there will be a slight shortage (likely due to everyone stocking up). Also, kinda weird that some brands are selling their oils on discount right now...

Weird, 5w30 was up to 39 for me until today when I checked and it's back down to $30. But I already have enough oil (including my most recent oil change) to be good for at least 10-12 months. Debating jumping on this or not... Edit: went ahead and bought a jug with subscribe and save at my...

You're correct. Sold by Valvoline. Still can't get it to show me any Walmart 5w30. I just changed my oil and got a jug of Mobil 1 Advanced Clean for super cheap. So I'm probably good for another 10-12 months. But debating if I should try and snag another jug of Valvoline Restore and Protect...

Maybe it's a regional thing and they're out in my area. Might try to VPN and see. Where are you?

Weird. Even Amazon is showing 39 for me. But that's 5w30. Other viscosity is 30.

What viscosity? 5w30 seems to be 38+ everywhere?

Considering Valvoline Restore and Protect just went up to $38 everywhere, and I got Mobil 1 Advance Clean for $12 after rebate, I'm going to hopefully see if Mobil 1 does anything and then switch back to Valvoline Restore and Protect next year when hopefully prices come down. But currently on...

Thanks. I might get it. But also Mobil 1 Advanced Clean now has a $10 rebate and $4 of Walmart Cash, so I can effectively get it for $12.

Was going to order some Valvoline Restore and Protect today, but they're OOS on Walmart for 5w-30. Think I might get a jug of the Mobil 1 Advanced Clean. Or I might go for Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Not trying to hoard, just having one on hand for the next oil change in a few months. Assuming...
