Mobil HDEO oil for multiple applications? thru Rhinehart.

[Killer223]

It's been a while for me, I've finally burned though my stock of oil. I've seen a lot of new products online. like full synthetic 15/40 used to only be 5/40 Here for some advise.
Some background, all my trucks are none emission trucks, historically I used VPB 15/40, rosmella 5/40. my ODI are usually around the 10K mark. I can't really bring myself to run much longer than that. could change with ya'll suggestions here.

I'd like to support an American company, Valvoline was sold to a Saudi company last I read, Rotella is dutch, from my limited understanding that leaves a few here, Mobil out of Texas, and Delo from California, and some other not so well knows ones, like swepco, maybe Rhineheart.

I can get mobil at a decent price as there is a distributor close to me. gentleman there suggested delvac extreme 15/40, or delvac MX, I can't find a whole lot on the MX, he states either one will do me just fine in my 3 cummins trucks and JD tractor, price between the two is minimal.

as mentioned before, Rhinehart oil, online presents looks ok, and price is decent, anyone heard of them?

I currently have t-6 5/40 in a few machines, can am maverick R, 01 Porsche 911, Honda Talon. any suggestions there?

or just go to Walmart gets what's on sale and go enjoy life?

Rhinehart is a large well known Mobil distributor and definitely reputable. Are you somewhere on the front-range?

If you want pails price wise a big box store is likely your cheapest option. If you want a drum to do all 4 engine oil changes at the same time the distributor may be cheaper and likely would deliver. Without knowing the year, model, usage it’s kinda hard to recommend specific products.

They days of purity in supporting American companies for global commodities are long gone.

Buy the oil that works for you at a price you can afford. Save the "yay America" for stuff you can buy on Etsy.


Personally, I'd stick with Premium Blue, Delo, or Delvac, in that order.

Mobil will come from Beaumont, Texas and they are Houston based. Chevron is in the middle of moving to Houston at a select pace … ChevronPhillips makes base stock in Texas …

Rotella T6 in a 911?

Buy mobil, chevron, or warren highline made oil like mag 1 or supertech as they're based in houston I believe and are american owned by a chicago firm. I used mag 1 15w-40 a lot since a 10 quart jug is $30 with free shipping on lowes but I switched to delo xsp since i got it cheap and like to use something different. 10k is long enough. For the 911 use Mobil 1 0w-40. HDEO especially lower calcium one isn't as bad as others think but the more appropriate stuff costs the same so might as well use it.

I forgot about Amalie made oil. They're based in florida and are family owned and operated since 1977. They make oil for many stores and brands like warren. I think amalie bottles say AOC on the bottom and warren oils have a B in the code or somewhere.

what about Schaeffer oil?, still family owned and blended in St, Louis last I knew. It's a top extensive product line,

 

[CleanSump]

Where'd the oil come from? It's a world market. Read the label on the bottle, made in USA with domestic and imported materials. Which, what, where?

maybe, but if I can keep a few dollars in a state I like or my country I going to try. vs seeing a higher % somewhere else.
