Walmart now needs to have a huge clearance to get rid of the old bottles. Nobody wants to buy old bottled Mobil1.
I like them better than the old ones,bashing can start any time now 3,2,1......

I'm with you. The old ones were boring. Do we buy oil based on the label now???
We don't, but a lot of the population does.
Indeed johnny, they are so easily influenced!
Hey you think Castrol marketeering is bad???? Multi color dipstick is not far behind this..

I only purchase Redline so I could really care less about what mobil 1 labels look like. Castrol does have some fairly pathetic ads out there I agree. I just find it humorous that so many here get all riled over a label change. Life goes on....
Does anyone know if the new bottle designs have a different or the same formulation as the previous? thanks
As BITOG oil geeks it's interesting to observe the various reactions to this thread. On BITOG everything about oil is discused, from molicules to labels. Of course advertising changes with the times as well as the type of bottles and or labels. I supposed when oil companies changed from metal cans to cardbord cans many scoffed at that. If it was good enough for grandpa it's good enough for me syndrome. Imangine the comments made when plastic bottles came out. What's this world coming to!
As to the new M1 labeling all their product line is consistant now. Engine oil to ATF. Big PaPa XM will no doubt take notice of this thread. Wonder what their marketing dept. thinks?

They look OK to me...the old ones were OK too. They now look more "European".
"European" is exactly what I was thinking about the feminine styling. Maybe they're trying to attract more female buyers?
I think it would be very interesting if someone that was on the design team could comment on why they went this way. I have no doubt there was a lot of time and money spent on this decision. Companys know that many people buy things based on looks alone. They also know that even people that know what there looking for can be persuaded by the looks of something or packaging. If this werent true then everything would just have black and white lables with some info or specs on it. It would be interesting to know what market they were targeting with these looks. Unfortionally for them, ill be sticking to PP or QS HP for a while. That darn iron debate finally got the best of me.
