that is a good deal for full synthetic at 4 bucks per qt.

It almost makes me just want to switch to full synthetic at that price vs. say 3 bucks per qt. for regular oil for the vehicles, why not at that price?

I did get though (after mail in rebate) at my local farm and fleet semi-synthetic citgo superguard 5 qt. jug for ONLY 99 cents AFTER the 7 dollar mail in rebate.  Where else can you get 5 qts. for a total of 99 cents plus tax???  Not as good am sure as mobil1 full synthetic, but plenty good enough for 5000 miles on a car/suv.

Wow, that's a great price for one of the finest motor oils made.  Since a lot of petroleum is used to manufacture synthetic oils, I wonder if low crude oil and natural gas prices are a factor.

yah, it surely seems that car/cycle oil prices have been coming down year after year, especially synthetic oil pricing, all EXCEPT AMSOIL 10w-40 cycle oil just went up for me at my local Amsoil rep at 11.55 per qt.  OUCH!!!  Lucky for me I only change my oil once per riding season on the Valkyrie.

How many hundreds of thousand miles do you need on a Valk before you should use the High Mileage?? Smiley

Thanks for the heads up. Brother is getting me right now as I'm on Forrest rat patrol.  I've got plenty of uses for that oil.

Picked up a couple this morning. I had the guy in the Auto dept ring them up to confirm. Showed regular price. I whipped out my Note3 and showed him and he said cool, let the checkout person know.

I never understood why they call it Motor Oil when it goes in an Engine? Kinda like driving on a parkway and parking in a driveway I suppose Undecided
