FYI Guys... Pennzoil Platinum $3.98/Qt.

New sale.

Available at Advance, Kragen, Schucks, Murrays, Checker.

Stock up!

I've still got a small butt-load from when their sale was buy one, get one but I think I'll go get at least a couple of cases at this price.

I think this is even cheaper than Wally's price.

Mobil Delvac, $9.17/ gallon ($2.29/quart) - normal price. this and most other diesel oils own all other motor oils as far as protection goes.

Delvac is a conventional 15/40, not a synthetic. I believe the Delvac 1, which is the synthetic shelf-mate, is in the $5.50 to $7.00 per qt. range.

Yes, I'm well aware that delvac is conventional and not synthetic. Delvac 1 is pretty hard to find, around here anyways.

many of you guys use the Platinum? I get it by the case at work for $2.55 a quart is the only reason I run it instead of Amsoil.
