Trying to find GC....

[Flashlightboy]

For those of you in SoCal who are interested, I found plenty of GC in Rancho Cucamonga.

It's the AZ on Foothill Blvd east of Milliken in the complex with Home Depot.

I bought some and left a case or so.

BTW, the other AZ on Foothill near Helman only has yellow and the AZ in Upland on Foothill/Euclid only has yellow.

Flashlightboy,

Hadn't heard from you in a while...thought maybe you had moved to Manahattan Beach, sworn off IN-N-Out burgers and had decided to pursue a life of surfing and studying seaweed as a major food group!

The latest news is that I tried a new AZ for some GC before the sale ends. My experience at my usual AZ is the manager orders 2 cases for me everytime I pick up the last, two-week cycle. At this place I politely asked the troll behind the counter if we could get a look at the palette in the back because all they had on the rack was OY. He grudgingly obliged, but no GC to BE. On a whim, I confidently asked "what amount do you guys order at a time, 2 cases?" He shot me down like an Iraqi Mirage. "We only get what they send us". Ok, douche-bag. So, some people have different experiences at AZ, I got lucky. For the record, my local place HAS 10q of OY and still orders my GC, no problem. If anyone really needs it, I will ship it, probally $40 total.

pscholte,

I have forgotten you guys at all. I've been reading my sample ballot and sorting through the 135 candidates for governor.

It takes time!

My options are pretty wide open here: I can keep the guy that broke the state, vote for the guy who wants to give the state back to Mexico, put the groper in, the porn star, the smut peddler or the guy with the highest cuteness quotient - Gary Coleman.

You got anything like this going on in CO?

Seaweed was the rave last week but it soon could be replaced by zucchini bud burgers.

Thank you for the warm welcome. I am learning a lot
from this board.

More power to all of you

Flb,

While Colorado, like every other place in the world, has its own "special personality," NOTHING like what you are experiencing there is going on here.

Okay, now I have my GC. What do I do with it? My truck isn't due for a change for another 9000 miles.

I think my dad is just about done with his Mobil1 inhis focus. I guess I'll give him some and see if he notices better gas mileage.

I hate this, Amsoil is good, GC should be good -decisions - I hate being stuck with these kind of decisions! I guess I need to buy another vehicle and run the GC in that.

Just sit down, relax, cradle a bottle of GC in your hands and drink in (not literally, of course) the ambiance. You don't need to use it right away!

sorry it took so long..I went to one of our 24 hour autozones over on stage road if anyone is familiar with Memphis. The first bottle was an older looking red and white cover on it too that I thought I found the GC, but it was just really old stock with a big layer of dust on it made in the USA. all the 0w30 bottles were made in the USA. That particular autozone doesn't seem to stock 0w30. only 15 bottles total with a ton of dust on them. I'll check with the main 24 hour autozone on summer road within the week. I highly doubt it if we have the german castrol here as there is alot of "prejudice" towards any brand weight with 0w30 on it. there are alot of 10w30 junkies here. we rarely get below freezing temps

ShootingStar, I was talking just about synthetic oils. Now, you can get the Schaeffer's in a synthetic, also. But people apparently usually buy the blend. The blend is a good oil.

Or SCHAEFFER'S!

What about Scheaffer's?
