Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
They tell me that the Walmart brand is Mobil at a lower price. It works for me.

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
I never go to Walmart; I'm too much interested in helping the US economy and local businesses instead of the Chinese economy and blood-sucking corporate America. But I go to my local auto parts store and buy whatever motor oil is on sale. Usually I get a gallon of brand motor oil for $12.50 or $13.90 max.

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
If it makes you feel good, go ahead. Common sense tells me, if you don't look out for your self, most others ain't gonna. I plan to save when I can especially when its the same product.

Aww, shucks. Now that we have the " last word on oil " I'll sure miss the opinions. Wonder what will take up the space, syntheticly refined bitumen........ ?

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
With my 10% discount I could change oil for under $12.00. Rod

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
This is a great site!!! All of the above info is important and greatly appreciated! :-) I find that house-brand items are usually the best buy, this includes stretch pants.

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
Model A oil buying made simple:
1) go to your favorite retailer, whether it be Wally-Mart, Sams, TSC or whoever I've left out. 2) buy the CHEAPEST 30-W oil they have 3) rest secure in the knowledge that it is about 10 times better oil than anything available in 1928-1931 4) put in in the engine and change it at whatever interval makes you happy. 5) move on to more significant worries on your list..........

Re: Last Word in the Oil Altercation....Finally
I like Walmart (especially their 5qt oil containers) Yesterday, I took a totally dead, 3YO battery (I had lost the reciept). I upgraded to a 5 year, somewhat heavier, battery and it only cost me $11. I was expecting one of those "It's Pro rated" fights. It didn't happen! They gave me full credit for it and charged me $20 for the upgrade, then they gave me a $9 core charge for the old battery. Walmart's ok with me!
