A great product and price....however, some claim they have cheapened the base oil?

It still carries the same approvals so I doubt the chemistry was changed too much. Thank theEPA for any changes they probably had to do. Still meets the standardsi need though and for the price you just can't beat it.
Rounded up, it's $25 per jug here in the local WMT, Hawaii, but they're flying off the shelves like crazy. Good thing I got one already for my next OCI.
In June NAPA will have the quarts on sale for around $7. I've been using it to top off my Mag1 Euro 5W-40 and I'm noticing less oil consumption and more responsiveness just after start up. My car was using around a qt/1k miles with just Mag1. Now with just a qt of M1 in there, it's only consuming 1/2 qt. Can't wait for next oil change.

Jeff -I saw that price the other day and picked up 2 jugs. It's a good price on a great oil. I might not hoard/stock up at that price, but I did buy my next oil change.

The US made SN oil is now GP III based.
It's still the benchmark 40wt oil from which all others are compared and found wanting to some extent.
It also produces a spectacular heavy 0W-20 and 0W-30 when blended with the Mobil made TGMO 0W-20.

Considering the product is not designed for the average API/ILSAC regime type vehicle and it's not even an ILSAC resource conserving grade, I cannot see how.

Too heavy, but cut 50% with TGMO 0W-20 it would good.
If TGMO is to dear then substituting M1 0W-20 in a 45/55% blend would be a secondary choice.

Does anyone have any idea IF Sino Mart is going to hold the curent price point for the nectar of the Gods for the foreseeable future??
I cannot buy it right at the moment, but I may want to use it for my winter OCI blended with a light, high VI 0W-20 in late October.
