But with Motul I don't mind the price so much, as it's an ester-based synthetic, whereas the Nissan stuff is just a conventional oil with an ester additive.
Just wanted to let you guys know, I showed up in uniform (Army) and they gave me a "military discount" at $8.63/qt and the filter was $5.10 (normally $7.08). So if you have a military ID card you might want to bust it out next time you go to your dealers parts counter..
