With oils in the past such as G-Oil, Biosyn, and now Penz Plat made from natural gas, I was wondering. Since these oils are not made from crude, does that effectively mean you are using less crude when using these types of oils? I am all for solar power and electric cars such as the Tesla...

All my life I have owned Hondas that used 5w30 or 5w20. This week I purchased a 2011 335i with the N55 turbo engine. I always keep the next oil change on hand, or at least have a store where I can easily pick it up. For this car I am thinking Mobil 1 0w40 and a OEM BMW filter at 10k intervals...

So the wife and I have finally started to process of buying our first home. Coming from an apartment, we are having to buy our first fridge and lawn equipment. I'm letting her handle the fridge and interior stuff. My job is to get the lawn equipment and wire the home for ethernet. So the...

I posted this over at Reddit also just wanting to hear everyone's opinion. REDDIT LINK At work I usually keep a roll of $1 coins in my desk to use in the vending machine. A co-worker saw me using them one day and wanted to buy them off of me (for face value) because they were "rare". Also, I...

I've seen a couple of people post or ask in threads about to availability of this stuff in weights other than 5w30. I sent off an email and received a response that they would be arriving at Amazon.com next week. I placed an order for some 0w20 and Amazon told me 1-2 months, however, if it...

As I'm running into my local Wal-Mart to pick up a jug of QSUD I glance at what the other shoppers around me are buying. It fell in line with what I also saw when I worked at O'Reilly during college. Dust is on all the bottles of NextGen, PP, G-Oil, etc. One guy grabbed a 5qt jug of Castrol...

I purchased a 2012 Civic LX for the wife a few months ago. The Maintenance Minder still shows 40% oil life at 6500 miles, but I already have an oil change on hand for it. (4qts Mobil 1 0w20) However I took advantage of the QSUD $20 rebate for my mom's car and thought about doing so for this...

I just saw this over on their Facebook page. Hopefully if we actually see this oil stocked in locations we can couple it with a rebate in the future for some good cheap oil. Link To Announcement Advanced Full Synthetic 5W-20, 5w30 and 10w30 API SM G-OIL Full Synthetic 0W-20, 0W-30, 5W-20...

Well, not a bunch of oil, but a liter. I frequently buy Blu-Rays from Amazon.co.uk because sometimes they are significantly cheaper. I was ordering a few sets tonight and I added a Liter bottle of Edge 0w30 to my cart, tried to checkout, and nope, can't ship to a US address. Just wondering...

From day 1 this car has been fed Mobil 1 5w20 with either a Mobil 1 filter or a Wix filter. After coming here and learning a wealth, I see that for a daily commuter car this isn't necessary and other oils are fine. I go by the dash OLM. Which I believe is around 6,000 miles. It's time for an...
