You mean, 5qt jugs?
Good deal at buck-a-quart! And most likely it's a blend anyway.

Do they have 5W-30 on sale , too ?
If it is a blend , wonder if it is DEXOS ?

Of course its good and no different then another oil of the same API.
Just checked out the ads in my area -- nothing like that deal stated.

Out of curiousity-- who makes this stuff? Assume Amalie, Valvoline, Warren or Warren.
The bottle of Ace Hardware SAE30 oil I have at have no API certifications at all, I dont see any other cert's either....

Shows $5 and "four cycle engine motor oil"... sounds a bit mowerish...eh? It does show SN but not SN+.

Unless it is some old stock, Ace Hardware branded oil is API SN or SN Plus:

Someone screwed up the shelf label possibly...my local Ace stores only have them for $4.99 per quart & not the jugs.

Pfft.. it's API SN @ $4.99..i would clean them out.
Relative to a 0w20 and a 5w30, a 5w20 uses little VM's or make up (base) oil to hit the target grade. It's good stuff (much like a 10w30 is), on paper at least.

That jug looks like the ones used by Warren/unilube. They offer brands such as coastal, lubrigold, lubrigard and Warren motor oil. They are a big player in private label blending/bottling, just like Warren distribution and Amalie.
Nice find. Ive never been disappointed with anything ive ever purchased at Ace, [censored] my house is held together, wired and plummed by Ace products...

Maybe it's just a local sale? On sale here until
Next week
Will this be ok to use in my high mileage tundra? Have been running synthetic 0w-20
Don't see why not since it's an API SN approved oil of the same grade; it should do just fine.
$5 bucks for 5qts is a heck of a find.ðŸ‘
