It's actually gone up in price slightly very recently.
New Super Tech Oil
- Thread starter motorguy222
- Start date
It's about $1.60 for the full syn over the conventional/syn blend
Motorcraft 5w20 syn blend. 1 qt per 1500 miles went to about 2700 miles.
And I know most "conventionals" are blends anyway, but I've heard on here lurking the old ST conventional and the high mileage were the same, but I'm hoping it has the same stop leak capability.

I only seen 10w30 on the shelf but they seem to be resetting that part of the store
I checked the back of the oil and it is quite generic, it has a chart and the conventional hm is gone, full syn and full syn hm are shown along with the all mileage and it only states it is SP and backwards. The all mile has been placed on the shelf where the hm used to be. I didn't notice if was dexos, the jug I looked at didn't have it but I didn't check all of the grades to see. As of yesterday, they still have conventional.
No dexos?
GDI engines produce more soot, the soot gets into the oil and causes problems like timing chain wear. Doesn't matter how good the oil is if it has a lot of abrasive soot suspended in it, need to shorten the OCI.
10w30 rarely has that I think?
That 10w30 above your post isn't Dexos, that weight doesn't qualify. There are other photos in this thread that show the 0w20 with Dexos1 gen2 approval. Stands to reason that 5w30 has the approval as well.

We just haven't seen pics of the "advanced full synthetic" in 5w-30
So $10 less than a 5qt jug of Mobil 1 EP? That's pretty incredible, assuming it is up to the task. Wouldn't the ST have to be made to similar specs and stocks to get that 20K OCI? Walmart must be getting a lot of oil change business to find a need to have such a product on the shelf, let alone at prices we pay for name brand conventional. It will be interesting to see if ST Advanced 20K comes in a high mileage version like Mobil 1 has for their EP series.
You’re pretty obsessed with the term “fake synthetic”, can you please educate me how much gains can a “100% synthetic” provide over the fake one
Doh! Your correct.
Stating the obvious, toyota builds some great long lasting, easy on oil engines; I run 12-15K OCI for my prius; change interval is somewhat related to the calendar month as i do not want to be changing oil in the winter

That’s a good, fair price for a good, quality motor oil. But our lives would be so meaningless if we didn’t criticize it...because Walmart, you know.

"Guranteed protection for 5K or 1 year, which ever comes first"
Good marketing for a huge demographic that drives little and isn't a bitoger.
No need to elaborate. There are probably thousands of posts not only on here, but on other forums, and articles published by big name industry players that all talk about how direct injection is hard on oil. Just google a little thing called API SP/ILSAC GF-6 and knock yourself out.
