Know anything about Kroger's no-name motor oil?

Do you know anything about the generic/no-name conventional oil that is sold Kroger? It's always at a good price. Much better than auto parts stores, and only about 50 cents higher than Walmart's SuperTech.

If the Kroger brand is 50 cents more than WM's supertech than why not just buy a namebrand oil at WM....like Pennzoil,Valvoline or Quaker State.

I have issues with Walmart.

It's API rated. That's about all I know of it. Hey, PZYB is $2.50/ qt at Kroger right now. Why not just get a bunch of that?

I think that the oil is made by Warren Unilube.This is not the Warren Performance Products that makes Super Tech and they are not linked in any way.

Warren Unilube makes their own products and many private label brands.

I got this from Business Week about Warren Unilube...

I'm going to keep looking at them, but it looks like I have found a new, good quality, low priced oil.
