Aye. At $48 shipped for 12qt/case, it was an excellent deal for Kendall. For $55 shipped/12 qt case, ehhh. Especially since they removed Ti from their GF6/SP formulas.
Is Kendall oil a good oil

The last time that I saw it retail was in a local Flying J. Price obviously was on the high side.
Back in the day when there were some locally owned Auto Part chains, such as Nationwide or Auto Works, I would pick it up on occasion on sale with a rebate.
Last time that I saw it in a repair facility was when Firestone had an agreement to use Kendall.

That's where I get mine. I'm in no way, shape, or form affiliated with them either. They're part of PSC. They did go up in price in the last year though, from $48 shipped to $55 shipped for a 12qt case. So now it's roughly equivalent to $22-23/5 qt jug for oils such as Valvoline AFS, Pennz Plat, Castrol Edge maybe. After I use up the rest of my stock, I'm not sure if I'll buy more.
That's the problem. If you buy it from the company or a jobber, it really is not price competitive.
That "Free Shipping" really adds up.
If you can find motorcraft full synthetic then you can get your hands on Kendall

Not true they are both very much treated differently in retail.Motocraft is more mainstream and sold here in Walmart but not Kendall.
I don't think availability was his point. At one time I believe they were shown to be the same formulation, at least as far as a PDS or VOA will take it.

It is a decent oil. I liked the previous formula that had titanium.
Why? What does that do for the oil?

Titanium is an additive that strongly bonds to metal surfaces at the molecular level, adding an extra layer of protection to further reduce wear on critical parts and help extend engine life. It also increases the oxidation stability of the oil, helping to prolong oil life during service.
I see Kendell Synthetic at "99 Cents only" store at $3.49 a quart in Da.
Titanium is not an “additive”, it’s a metallic element. What’s the compound that is used? I have a minor in chemistry and I’m interested in specifics.
