I just changed the centre of gravity of my oil stash. I gave away some heavy 20W-50 and purchased some lighter 5W-30. I now have:
(10L) Shell Helix Ultra 5W-40
(10L) Castrol Edge 5W-30 A3/B4
(5L) Castrol GTX 15W-40 SN
(5L) Valvoline SynPower 0W-40
(1L) Penrite 10-Tenths Racing 10W-40
(1L) Castrol Edge 10W-60

Anybody else care to say what they have?
 
Well my lady won't let me keep much around the place we have. So, I only have 4 qts of Havoline Pro DS 10w30, 1 qt of PYB 10w30, 1 qt of Quaker State Enhanced Durability 5w30 and a half qt of Havoline 5w30 conventional.

She complains when I have more than 8 qts around. You would think she would give me more leeway considering I make her slow smoked beef ribs, pork ribs, smoked spiral hams, smoked fish and very good steaks too. Ohh well.. I'm not fighting that battle

There is probably a quart or two of 5W-30 left over from the fall vehicle oil changes, and half a gallon or so of Rotella 15W-40 from the tractor/small engine oil changes. I don't have any vehicles or equipment that consume any appreciable amount of oil, so having it sit on a shelf makes no sense whatsoever. I don't waste time chasing down sales or closeouts-the amount saved simply isn't worth my time.

I prefer to invest my money in something that provides a return, and I'll let the local farm store carry my "stash" in their inventory. I don't like keeping capital tied up in something that is readily available and relatively inexpensive-it simply makes no financial sense.
