How many PENNZOIL S.U.V. syn-blend users ?

[smokey1]

What weight ? Why ? How Long ? What Vehicle ?

 

[smokey1]

no one uses this oil , what's up with that ?

Currently have it in the 2000 PRIZM , picked some up for .95 cents a quart .

Throw it in, it has the same additive package as the conventional. Just some syn.

I don't know that I've seen it.

GROUCHO , some WALLY Marts sell it and most PEPBOYS do stock it , last I knew . Got the PENN blend at both stores on sale .

Groucho, it's in a gold bottle. Probably why you overlooked it.

And, I don't know why more folks don't use it. It's a very good blend.

 

[smokey1]

very similar in color to the dark bronze HIGH MILEAGE bottle , even I have overlooked it , until the other half pointed it out .

 

[smokey1]

maybe they should just call it a synthetic blend and remove the S.U.V.,Mini-Van, and TRUCK from label . Consumers probably think it's only for that application which is not the case . Says can be used for domestic and import cars as well on back label and at the DATA SHEET of PENNZOIL website .

Nah, I'm overlookinng it on purpose. Trying to save myself before I have a TallPaul type problem(stash).

I haven't bought a quart of oil in over 6 mos and still have at least 3 changes on hand.

I personally discourage all blends, not just this one. My reasoning is, if you want conventional use it, if you want synthetic use that, but if you want a blend, mix it yourself. You get more synthetic that way. At the maxium you will get no more that 30% synthetic in any of them, and more than likely it's somewhere between 10 and 20% synthetic. If I mix my own, I can make the concentration as much as I want to. I just think synthetic blends are a marketing ploy to get your money. That's all.

Apparently the QS Truck&SUV blend fell on it's face. BigLots had tons of it on closeout and it didn't even do well at BL at a closeout price. Probably a decent oil with poor marketing.
