Because the other Smart chnge boxes are still under $20. They must think this is Boutique oil!
Well, it is. It can only be had at one retailer and looking at the PDF data, it has some similar characteristics as some oils with PAO in the base.
I'm very curious about it and may give it a run at some point. My stash is pretty full right now, though, and my wife might come after me if I buy more oil.
I could care less about the plant-based aspect. But I like what I've read about it so far. And Chevron is one of the very best of the oil companies, if not the best. According to a family member in the capital investment side of the oil industry, they are the most effectively managed of the big ones. So I'm very interested in seeing how this oil performs. I don't think $33 for 6 quarts is out of whack looking at others like Royal Purple, M1 EP, Amsoil Signature, Red Line, or others.
