truck pride oil???

[SmotalChaos]

Long Island Truck Parts carries "truck pride" oil for very good prices- a little over $9/gal. I know I can get Delvac at wal-mart for $10/gal, but I hate wal-mart. Id rather give Truck Parts the business. But, does anyone know who makes this oil??? It's CJ-4 rated, but I cant find out who makes it, and they dont know. It's for fleet trucks and equipment that are very well maintained.

From this, it appears to be Valvoline.

And, there is no telling if it is the full equal of Valvoline brand oil, or if it is blended of cheaper ingredients so it holds spec for fewer miles.

Elven with the lack of facts I can say it is probably an OK oil if you do not do extended OCI's.

I'd try it in a unit or two - do a UOA and see what shakes out.

it says ashland on the jug, so it's gotta be a valvoline product. doubt it's premium blue though. I'm sure it's fine
