My F150 did the same thing with the thicker Redline 5W20. I was amazed and quickly put something else in there.

Yes, it is Mobil. You think $14 is bad for a bottle of conventional? Try $25-$30 for a bottle of synthetic! I can get 3 bottles of RP MaxGear for the same or even less vs 1 bottle of GM gear lube( synthetic ). When I had my Chevy trucks I always bought RP. $9 a bottle vs $25-$30 and a better...

Big Lots is having a sale on store brand oil, and the bottles are all damaged from shipping. $0.25/bottle with a mail-in rebate for $0.50. Seems like a good deal; I get double my money back. They also have store brand filters for next to nothing: $0.68 each. One filter should do me for a 7500...
