Been lurking for a long time and just signed up. Forgive me if this a dead horse or something but where is all the PPU? I have a 2016 F150 3.5 Ecoboost I'd like to switch to PPU. Can't find it at Wally world nor any of the local auto parts stores, in which the Wally worlds have M1 and Castrol for days. I see it online but the prices are nearly what I could order Amsoil for. What am I missing?

We recently saw a big marketing push for Ultra at our local big box Canadian Tires, I have never seen any consistent shelf placement for this product.
I actually have to order it buy the case for the once in a blue Moon sales on it at NAPA.

I bought my last batch online JDM through amazon. It seemed like when they brought out the new bottles is when the price shot up. I paid $27 5qt now they range in the $40's and up.

I cant understand why these huge oil companies come out with their top of the line premium products and NO store carries them.
Forget all these Ghost oils that you can't find so easy use a synthetic you can buy everywhere for a decent price.. One is not any better than the other one if one oil was better they would advertise it everywhere that it is better than the rest... There is a reason why none of them do that..
If you want to go name brand QSUD is probably the best bang for your buck.. Mobil 1 is known everywhere and sold pretty much everywhere. Castrol, Pennzoil and Valvoline are also good choices if you can find a good deal on them. Just because an oil is expensive does not mean it's better it just means it's more expensive.

Where Has All The PPU Gone?
Pete Seeger - Sung to the melody of Peter, Paul, and Mary:
Where has all the Ultra gone, long time passing?
Where has all the Ultra gone, long time ago?
Where has all the Ultra gone?
Old Bitogers have picked it all.
Oh, when will they ever learn?
Oh, when will they ever learn?
Fades into Bob Dylan........
How many oil aisles must a man walk down
Before you can call him a Bitoger?
How many Walmarts must an oil nerd endure
Before he finds the PPU unicorn elixir?
Yes, and how many times must we
Beat this Ultra horse to death?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is ......................................Its In Nick1994's Stash!

If the oil is not on sale, I won;t buy it again. Castrol Edge and Mobil-1 EP are two other alternatives to Pennzoil Ultra.

I'm not sure where I posted that I was only believing it was "better" because of cost?
I've done my homework boys.... seen a few UOAs and I want to try it. Will probably run a UOA afterwards and then try Amsoil eventually.
Was honestly just curious as to where the stock was. If I don't catch up with some, will probably run PU or M1.

Liqui-Moly is easier to find than PUP
I was not referring to you i was just making a general statement about the cost..
I used to like that ultra but i never like the platinum i preferred the QSUD at one time
OP read your private messages. I sent you some information which may help you.

Yes, and Eneos, too, here. Partsource locations here are a chain affiliated with Canadian Tire. One of ours carries Eneos and the other LM. Oddly enough, the pricing on those aren't too bad.

I can never find it at my local Walmart, never on the shelf ever.
So I had to order it from Walmart.com and have it shipped home. Last time I ordered a bunch of quart bottles on sale (it's still on sale) and I got free one-day shipping. Plus the Pennzoil $2/quart rebate ended up making each quart about ~$5.

The PU has been available on clearance, especially the 10w-30. I got a lot last year too in PU SRT 0w-40. I too have rarely seen the regular PUP available, especially in the more popular grades.
