Post your latest oil purchase or even filter.

Friend/military veteran sent me 3 OG ULTRA XG-8A’s for some oil changes I did for him. Real, wire backed quality.

30W-HD Traveller oil and Tough Guard filter for lawn tractor and Honda mower. Since Honda doesn’t have an oil drain on the bottom, the mower has to be flipped bottom side up to drain. That’s just STUPID.
That's why they make Oil Extractors. MityVac and Pela are two brands I like. Get the ones that have tall and narrow tanks..... holds several quarts.
These work great with my push lawnmower also. Stick a landscaping (red brick perhaps) wall block and place it under one side of the mower, to allow a tilt of the oil in the direction where your oil line is being inserted. No more need to turn the lawnmower upside-down.

As far as those oil filter pics above, I no longer buy oil filters that don't have the round holes inside the tube. The media does a better job, than with having eye-lit holes in there. That's my opinion anyways.

This is likely my new go to full synthetic oil choice. Picked this up at menards where it’s everyday price $18.97. That’s comparable to SuperTech pricing without having to deal with the WalMartians to get it.

I have eyed up that up when I glance at the oil section when I'm there.

I kinda miss the National oil brand that they used to have, was a good bargain oil

they also Had Smitty's oil for a short period of time.
 
Rock Auto oil filter order came in. Was expecting a case of PRONTO PG2500 oil filters per the stock photo but got a case of Parts Plus PH500 oil filters instead. They are Premium Guard made and fresh 2024 dated with silicone ADBV, so I am not complaining.
