Actually, PepBoys carries it now, too. And the latest batches no longer have the 'nut' cap. Just more of a generic-looking round cap.

Oops, thanks the correction. I know at one point, AZ was the only source of it and it had a nut cap. Good catch.

Yeah, the only reason I know is because I just stocked up on it last weekend since it's on sale now.

Whats the price on it at PB?

EDIT: I see $25 for 5qts (I'll get the Fram filter in the size for my mother-in-law's Kia because I always find that I have to do her oil

)

$24.99 for 5 quarts and a FRAM filter.

AZ has it for $27.99 for 5 quarts and a K&N filter. Since they don't stock K&N filters for either of our two cars, they gave me M1 filters instead.

I have seen in a couple of Napa Auto Parts stores, Lubro Moly 5w-40. Have you considered that one? I think it is sold in 1L & 5L size.
