I've only seen it at CONOCO-Phillips stations... they are hard to find.
As TPITCHER says... Conoco-Phillips, Motorcraft, 76, TropArctic, Kendall, and Motorcraft are all the same according to the CP websites.
I had the same problem... looking for the CP blend other than Motorcraft labeled product. Not knowing better and thinking with my dipstick, I drained out perfectly good MC blend installed by the dealer during an OC and put in a known quality oil. I just couldn't run a FORD labeled product in my Toyotas!!! Sthupid, no?
THEN I GOT HELP...
With medications, consults with "Dr. Steve", and weekly group therapy on BITOG!!! I discovered that the CP products are essentially the same. They meet the API, SAE, FORD, and ACEA qualifications; they're not pricey; and you can use them with confidence.
I prefer the 'blend' .... I've reformed and now run MC in all power units ... Toyos, Deere, Toro, DR trimmer, ... 'cuz it works, it's easy to get and a thrifty choice! (Appeals to my Scots genes and not my dipstick!)

Here in N.Y. Pep Boys is running an ad for 5 qts of Kendall syn. and a junk filter for $20.00 till Oct 4th. Nice sleeper oil with some pretty good numbers....
The "junk filter" is pretty much a re-badged Purolater ("Proline").

Yeah, they're not junk. I like them better than Super Techs, personally. I've used them a few times with good results. Cut two open and they looked great, too.

Take a Pro Line cartridge filter then take a cartridge filter from Purolater same application of course, compare the two if that works for you happy days are just ahead.
Try one of these NC Conoco distributors:

A fellow BITOG who is not too active anymore was able to get his oil directly from a TX distributor. You will probably only be able to purchase cases instead of qt bottles.

I don't use cartridge filters so that doesn't really impact me. I cut open a PPL14459, a PL14459 and a L14459 and they were all very well made.

There are 8 PepBoys stores in NC. PB's sells Kendall which is Conoco oil. They sell both the full synthetic and the blend. Both are called GT1. One uses a gold cap and the other a silver. Used to anwyay. Very good oil. The PB here carries 5W-20.
