Amalie 5W-50 Elixir Full Synthetic

[Graham Piccinini]

Didn't put this in "Sales & Promotions" as this is a normal, not discounted price. Considering the price jumps on everything, this one doesn't seem to be affected (yet). There was some talk about 5w50 grades recently, and this one seems like the best deal. I'd stock up before the price jumps, if I needed this oil. This one is ~$85 for 12qts. Every other 5W50 I saw is $50-$80 for 6qts... So $100-$160 for 12qts. Not a bad deal for good oil.

Yeah, I find that Amalie is the budget lower priced oil offering that meets Dexos1 and other approvals/carts.

I believe Amalie is the house brand at Carquest right now, and I think they also made/make Fram oil, which Carquest carries (unless they’ve discontinued it). I have 7 quarts of various weights in my garage (5W30, 5W20, 0W20). I’d say five of those quarts are 0W20, with the other two being the 5W20 and 5W30. I’m going to make a FrankenBrew and run it for 7,500-10,000 miles in June.

The use of the word ELIXIR on the label will drive people to buy this oil.

LOL no that's so the snake oil salesmen don't fall out of their job description!
