Small rant So I went to an oil change place today, won't mention names, and when asked if Penzoil was ok, I told them I preferred the Mobil 5W-30...
20 minutes later he fronts me the bill for $68.25
With a shocked look on my face I laughed and asked why it was not 26.99 as advertised.
"well sir, Mobil oil is only full synthetic, its $7.50/qt."
Seeing how I never asked for synthetic and they had a HUGE rack of Mobil oils on the wall I never thought I'd need to mention I didn't want the synthetic.
No big deal, I was planning on switching over soon anyway, just didn't really have the change to spare today on it...
