Is there an PCMO that you said you'd never buy again.

I think so, they can blend a good base with a weak addpack, the opposite or both
I've seen others tout this as well, particularly Mobil 1 0W-40. Is this generally a good replacement for manufacturer-recommended 5W-30?

Hmm, interesting reply … I’m wearing a fishing shirt when the Napa guys are rude.
(figured Im not one of the big commercial accounts) …
Citgo. Never bought it but never will, since Venezula is a dictatorship.
yes
I kinda hate BP , so I try to avoid Castrol.
I have a neighbor probably in his late 70s, I don't think he'd ever buy Quaker State again, he used it back in the 70s and it sludged up his engines pretty good, he seemed unaware that Quaker State is now owned by SOPUS and that the quality of motor oil overall is so much better now than it was back then, He was an avid Valvoline guy, he decided to start using Pennzoil high mileage recently.

Kinda hate, that’s interesting. Just kidding
Over the last 3.5 years or so I’ve noticed a very big swing towards US, Canadien, and European manufacturing for Great Value products that used to be made in China. I’ll buy their products as long as they are not made in China or some other commie country. To my knowledge, all the SuperTech products are made in the US.
I personally avoid Royal Purple PCMO. Their API licensed products are overpriced for what they are. I do however like their High Performance Street line (not API licensed) for some of my small equipment.
Any oil I have bought in the past I would use again. Was not crazy about the UOA I had with Royal Purple, and would not buy it for full price (or even half price).
I would never buy generic gas station oil or the dollar brand oils with questionable ratings.
Never been "burned" buy any major oil maker.

I usually stay away from store brand oil unless it’s made by Warren that’s the only time I buy it and that’s in an emergency. Also gas station oil my automotive teacher in high school always told us to stay away from that.
Not related but after I found my wife dead in the tub 3 years ago from a brain aneurysm.... I refused to go into the bathroom ever again ....i sold the house 2 years later. I shut the bathroom door and never looked inside again.
That's horrible...I'm sorry for your loss
I have no intention of using 5w20 viscosity oil again unless absolutely necessary and convenient. I have found 0w20 to be a superior performing viscosity oil in applications recommending 5w20.
Blain's Farm & Fleet - Citgo Synthetic

Best to be informed completely on such matters.
