If you're doing it yourself and there's a Costco near by its the cheapest place to get it. Check their website too they have $10 a case coupons every once in a while.

Yeah, it's made by Mobil. The Walmart stuff is cheaper because it's really just used Mobil One recycled and repackaged. :mrgreen: ;)

Can you just run synthetic? What if regular oil was run in the car since new?

How many miles do you guys go before changing synthetic?
