Currently these are the cheapest oils. But anything you buy now will be cheaper than after a few more months.

What makes you so sure about that? It’s doubtful that the price of oil will come back down.

I'm pretty sure it's a plot by Elon to force us to buy more Teslas... He's wack!

I'm guessing / speculating. I'm sure the oil will never go back down. However, I'm almost sure that its price will go up again in near future. Especially, if there is more demand than supply.

And currently the supply is below normal. The Shell GTL facility in Qatar is expected to start functioning again next year, according yo Shell. I think that might be the reason why the Pennzoil price went up higher than the other brands.

Can you, please, show me a product which price went up and then came down in recent years?

I look for the prices of lubricating oil's to be even higher for at least a year or two and perhaps more scarce in supply, , as also many products will JUST meet the specs/licenses , no over kill on the formulas (pun), and some overall per say cost cutting of the products quality to meet profit margins for the executives, look for some smaller oil providers/blenders to fold too.

I was trying to say the opposite anything you buy now it will be cheaper compared with the same product in near future. Not that it will be cheaper in the future.
I edited my post.

Today Amazon , Walmart on-line and Walmart in the store all showing the same price for VRP 5W30 at $35.97 per 5 qrt. jug . I bought two jugs today to hit my intended 5 clraning OCI’s of VRP 5W30. Once complete, I’m going to consider going back to M1 0W30 ESP or M1 5W30 EP so I can incrementally extend my OCI’s via testing to ensure that going from 4K - 5K miles to 7,500 miles is safe to do (90% interstate / highway driving - Hyundai / Kia non - turbo GDI and PFI engines). With oil prices rising and majority of driving now interstate / highway driving, I don’t want to waste money and foolishly dump oil before it’s spent if cleaning properties are still intact in the oil being used.

The VRP should be fine for the 7500 miles also. I think Valvoline’s wording was at least 4 oil change intervals, whatever your “normal” or MM interval is. Hyundai/Kia I believe is 7500 miles with a severe service of 3750 miles. Some Hyundai/Kia models may have 5k as severe and 10k normal as others had listed. Probably based on which have the MPI. Knowing their history, I personally am sticking closer to the severe service schedule, doesn’t matter which oil. Tucson is currently on 4k/6 months, Sonata 5k/6 months, older Forte 5k not sure on time yet since 8 hours away and a lot of local use (my son is .6 mile from his main work site).

If things are not available then maybe need options but Restore and Protect 5W-30 or ESP 0W-30 would be my choice and test up to your comfort level.

I also don't know if any testing will show what is there to start or left of cleaning properties vs the additives. We don't know what the VRP cleaning chemical is.

Only oil I've bought from wm recently is Valvoline 15w-40 since its still cheap.

Oil prices will not come down in future even when conflict is over. The prices stayed low and unchanged for many years, I recall buying Mobil1 EP for $26-28 even 10 years ago. Inflation alone needs a price increase.

Once prices go up, they typically never go down. you might have a sale or rollback, but I do not see it going back to same price again.

Mr. modern business man at work taking advantage of your dollar because of the current situation to boost profits $$$$$$$ ,even after the price of raw materials come down.

There’s nothing cheap at my Walmart. I picked up 15 gallons of that clearance Delo at AZ yesterday for a coworker. This Havoline at Sam’s is still showing at a great price for me: https://www.samsclub.com/ip/Chevron...thetic-Motor-Oil-Assorted-Weights/18142111734

 

[tolian21]

Average inflation is 3% per year, and was 8% during COVID, they kept prices the same, but maybe they cant do it anymore

Love the marketing on box 20% MORE than Standard 5QT Jugs.

All the UOA's I recall were good for it. For me to get free shipping as it says no pickup or delivery I would need to buy 2 of them. Not that that would be a BITOG stocking issue but for some it may be.

That's market capitalism, right? Whatever the market will bear...

I like the Havoline oil and that link works. I am sure they will update the prices eventually, this is the old price. Great deal in the interim!

The 2 pack and 3 pack of ESP 0W-30 is cheaper per quart than single jug.

Somewhat relevant for Canadians - Canadian Tire sale price on Edge EP this upcoming week is $69.99 per jug
