Talking Where do you buy your OIL ??

Darn it, Wal-Mart doesn't carry the Delo 10w30 that I've been using anymore.
But, what I did find (that I don't intend to use, but want to mention to fellow members in case it'll help someone) is...Sams Club has Castrol GTX, 6 quarts in a box for under $10. Works out to something like $1.60 a quarts or something super cheap. Thought I'd mention it in case someone's looking for cheap oil. AND they conveniently packaged it in 6-quart box for us 4.0 guys !!
Keep wheelin' *****es !!

I use Mobil one in both my family car and XJ.
Walmart usually has the best price on a 5gal jug - which is perfect for the family car which takes 4.x of 0-20, but it astounds me how the 5gal jug at ~25 is reasonable at 5 or so a quart, but to buy a single quart bottle is like $8-10.
Since I use 5-30 in the xj, I just buy 2 5g and then 1 the next 4 oil changes and repeat.
A Sam's club membership may be a worthwhile investment - especially since I'll be moving closer to our local one in the next couple of years.

From what I understand it is Valvoline.

I use NAPA house brand conventional oil, which is Valvoline and shares same digits in part numbers. $15 per gallon.
Have also used walmart's SuperTech, it is shipped free.

I use WalMart if I happen to be in the store for another reason, but I hate shopping there. I use Amazon and my Prime benefit for free shipping.

I buy from the cheapest place I can find, which is usually Walmart, and I very rarely buy oil without a rebate.

Agreed. Have sent several Supertech samples away for analysis, and all have come back with great results. Even with extended OCI. That's all I buy now.
