Everytime I see somebody else grabbing oil at my local Walmart it's Mobil 1.
.
At almost 38.00 one could buy from their RP direct site and get the HMX or HPS line for nearly the same monies over this Dexos junk. I'm still amazed at how people get sucked into their retail oil pricing. M1 EP especially in HM can outperform RP for less money and you get 5 vs 4 qts.
How long do you wait to see? Around here the Quaker Synthetic HM is the winner and on price point I think it has just about everybody beat.

It's still for sale at the two near me. But still $37/jug and $9/qt

I would agree.. the Quaker State seems to be priced "About the cheapest oil at Walmart." Sometimes it may even be less than the now-blue Supertech bottles; they are neck and neck, Walmart pricing USED to have their Synthetic options a scant $1 more than not. Those days appear to be over. And I also no longer see 6 quart or 12 quart "box" oil, which I don't mind because getting oil out of box seems inhibiting to me... surprised that didn't catch in though, due to price. (Talking about Walmart here.)I still think Walmart is maybe the best retail store to buy oil as the regular price is usually lower than sales at other stores. Walmart doesn't have "sales." Walmart seems to be a little bit different every store.
So again, Brick NJ store, I think Store #1872.. Walmart appears gone, it was there a long tike and it doesn't look like empty shelf space waiting for a re-stock, it either all sold (unlikely) or its just been allocated for other oil. I'll have to snap a pic next time I'm there. Other stores I'm sure would be different... the purple oil seems like the one that never moved, maybe management took notice.
I'll keep an eye out if I see it at other stores. The stuff in the store didn't seem to be anything special, except for purple lol. Did not Synerlec make RP special, and, no more?
Synerlec I believe is still promoted or used in the hmx and HPS lines. I think a lot of that has to do with the rating and SL rated for HMX.

No Liquimoly or HPL? I'm out.
