Whats the normal price at autozone for Mobil 1 5 qts? I just picked up 4 5qt jugs for the audi and truck at Walmart, they are up to 28 each. Walmart has always been the cheapest place I could find Mobil 1.

i think the going rate for 0 w 40 is like 8 and change a quart…walmart is usually cheaper but they usualy do not have the 0 40

I really like the shell / Rotella T6 5w40 as found at walmart for around $20 for a 4 QT container.

Does he have any comparisons for synthetic? Where does it say Mobil 1 sucks? If I am getting ripped off buying Mobil 1 I would like to know because I was under the impression it was a good synthetic.

I have heardddd that Mobil1 Synthetic is no longer %100 Synthetic, though I cannot recall the source so there is a fair chance I am incorrect.

if you want to debate oil to the end of the world, [bobistheoilguy.com](http://bobistheoilguy.com) is where to go.

the basic historic cliff notes are that back in the late 90s castrol started using crude oil as their base what they sold as synthetic and Mobil one sued them. They lost and went with the classic “if you can’t beat them, join them” and that’s when things went downhill.

I’m not saying your car will blow up next friday if you use mobil one, but there are certainly better choices for the same money or less.

theblue’s correct. That forum has an insane amount of info on it. I’ve always used Rotella in my motorcycles which see upwards of 12k rpms and it holds up very well. The bikes shift smoother with it as well vs mobil 1.

In as a rotella humper as well… Over 20 rotella changes dating back to 2003… never an issue.

Unless you count the time i DIDNT use rotella and paid 9 bucks a court for full synthetic motul? golden spec? or one of those, then I had clutch problems

Rotella FTW
