I go to Walmart to get Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20.
They're out.
There is like 4 other varieties of 20 weight but not extended.
Well I wanted to switch over to Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0w20, they didn't have that either.
3rd option Quaker State 0w20 Ultimate Protection well there out of that also.
No I don't do 20,000 miles maybe 8,000 miles max.

Just venting.
I need to buy more when its in stock.
Mobil 1 is frustrating with all the versions.
Now we have Mobil 1 ESP Euro 0w20.

This is why I only stock up when Pennzoil Platinum, Castrol Edge or Mobil 1 products go on sale. I am a Kirkland and Super Tech dude enough independent testing shown both will survive my vehicles oil needs and change intervals.
 
You live in Florida, step up to Mobil 1 ESP Euro 5W-30. You will thank me later.
Mobil 1 ESP 5W-30!
Ya if it was my truck.
It's my daughters truck 2021 4 runner , sometimes oil changes get delayed
I was thinking 5w30 it is under an extended warranty

It looks like you're venting out about Walmart, not Mobil.
In this case variety is a good thing because you can get another oil if your oil is not available.
Otherwise, order online and you'll be fine.

If you cannot find any oil on Walmart's website, check out eBay and Amazon.

Maybe I am
Just don't know why we need so many variations of mobil 1 also
 
And because each one is specially blended for the needs of your specific car, they get to price it higher.

I miss the days when the choice was detergent vs non detergent, and multi viscosity versus single grade.
 
Ya right ran that by my wife once !
To put it mildly she was not as amused as I was.
I introduced my girlfriend (she's now my wife of 23 years) to a friend of mine. My friend says to her, Oh, I'm surprised you and Leo are still together. Leo likes variety. My wife and I still laugh about it.
 
I went today and got a jug of Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0W20. They had it. But they did not have the truck/suv variety of Mobil 1. They did not have Pennzoil Ultra Platinum in anything. Walmart.com had Mobil 1 truck /Suv on sale. $23.99 I believe.

Based on your OCI needs , Mobil 1 ESP 0w20 is the best oil you can buy at Walmart. If not available at your local Walmart - you can order on line .
