yeah actually there are some selected ones that carry it......
but work rumors that were gonna carry it in every store now..we got 4 boxes last week first time they sent our store some there gonna go up in a few months...i think they'll be up in a few months in many autozones or so i hear...

i say its worth it i hear ist like 40somethin bucks for 6 not too much of a difference if mobil or castrol was not on special...but ill take advantage on the special tho

yeah i got you man. hey thanks for the info. i am really thinking of switching over to royal purple only because of the good rep that i am hearing from consumers that use that product. i once checked it out and i usually get a box of 12qts cuz i dont like going back to the store frequently and when i checked the price on the royal purple it was like 80 bucks. so i backed off and went with another brand..lol

fyi i prefer the pennzoil platinum. In many independent tests it finishes better than both oils mentioned. Only royal purple tests better. And i usually buy mine from wal mart because its like two dollars cheaper there. Also i buy k&n filters for oil only. Stock for air

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


No matter what those indepenent tests show between mobil 1 and penzoil; real life tests on your car even if you push it to the limits it won't ever make a difference in your car. The tests show marginally different results and with every "test" there is a margin of error. How close was the margin of error to the actual difference in the two?

I trust Mobil 1 oil with my motor, I am not one to worry about a marginal difference as it will never really make a difference in real life, even though as people say the quality in mobil one years back was much better
