Oil Thread

I like Scotty Kilmer.

I agree, he's fun to watch, especially when the arms start frialing around.

But his love of Toyota products seems a little over the top.

Not that thier not good vehicles, they certainly are.  But other companies do make good vehicles also.

synthetic oils have come way down in price for vehicles anyways have seen 3-4 bucks per qt. on sale and most all under 5 bucks per qt. on sale as compared to 2-3 bucks per qt. for semi synthetic oils I currently use on my vehicles.   I have not switched over to full synthetic yet on any of my vehicles except my truck which requires 0w-20 full synthetic 8qts. but am thinking of doing it as they age.  I figure if the mfg. does NOT require full synthetic, then really no reason to switch on over, agree?  AS long as like me I change oil every 5-6 mths and under 5000 miles each time.

This must be the shortest oil thread ever!

I was on the oil aisle at Walmart the other day and noticed that synthetics completely dominate the shelves. The prices were close to what I paid over a decade ago, which might be encouraging some people to switch. That's not really surprising since crude oil and gasoline prices have been stable except for a few brief anomalies.
