i was curious if this was happening elsewhere. but after seeing several say their store is fine, i think the issue with this particular store is just poor management.

conspiracy theories are for those that mow grass without a blade on their mower, if you know what i mean. whether or not there is an oil shortage is just my local/regional observation over the course of several months. it is odd that this particular walmart is having this issue. it wasnt like...

nahhh. a little extreme i suppose. 5 jugs would probably last me 5 years. but i guess some folks like that sorta thing. if i had a lot of cars to maintain i can see doing that but i just dont have the need.

have you guys noticed empty shelves at walmart lately? my local store is nearly bare. today they had no more than 10-15 total jugs. it has been this way for months. no QSUP, no castrol gtx or edge, very few bottles of m1. quart bottles of all brands are non existent. all flavors of 5w30 are...

guys forgive me for not understanding the technical lingo of the data sheets, but based on these specs, which one is the better oil? to me they seem fairly equal. are they? i tried searching google for what the terms mean but i cant make sense of it much. any help is appreciated though.

it doesnt matter at all. just curious whether it could be the same oil in a green bottle.

rotella gas truck discontinued & quaker state new ultimate protection shows up. is it likely that the new quaker state is just rebranded gas truck oil?

are the euro 5w40 oils ok to run in ford trucks? i have ford ranger 2.3 turbo ecoboost. do those oils really meet ford specs? the bottle doesnt specify, or i just dont understand it. if i used a name brand 5w40 euro oil does that void a warranty? sorry if this has been asked before, im not...

I ended up using the new Quaker state ultimate protection. Kinda wish I’d went with Castrol black or gold. It may or may not be better, I dunno. Id prob sleep better if I had 🫤

im not really loyal to any specific brand of oil. that said, when it comes to gdi turbo engines is there any type that does a better job with turbos/heating? will full synthetic #1 that meets requirements do just as good with protection as the next full synthetic as long as oil changes are...

i have watched several YouTube videos claiming that castrol was best for the ford ecoboost turbo engines. its time for my oil change and im curious if any of you have any experience with the latest offering from quaker state. im debating between castrol edge or the new 20k mile ultimate...

its been 5 yrs since i helped them with their first house. they are still living there and lead a good life. right now the best thing i do to provide the most help is babysitting my 2yr old grandson. lots of hugs, lots of playtime, lots of naps... but nothing quite like the sound of him saying...

first car ...yes first house ...yes let my son be on my auto insurance for about 3 years. when my son got his license at 16 i added him to my insurance & i also added him as authorized user on many of my credit card accounts. this gave im a significant fico boost/head start. when he turned 19 i...

i would only use oils that met the requirements specified by the owners manual. by experiment i only meant those type oils. sorry, i should have made that point in my original post. from reading some of the posts on here i noticed many use a different brand each oil change because of special...
