Straight discount.

It's just the normal price for any 5 qt bottle of Mobil 1, so it could just be a regular thing now. They just never had the 0w40 in 5 qt bottles before, just individual 1 qt bottles.

Well that's awesome then if it's their regular price going forward. Hard to beat a top quality oil (the 0w40, not the rest of the Mobil) for $5/qt.

I've always picked up my Mobil 1 at Walmart. The 5W-30 has been $25 for 5 qts for several years now, and I just noticed the 5qt 0W-40 last time I was there. Great price!

Looking good, Steve!

That is one sharp color!

KaienZ34 · 04-30-2013, 09:02 AM

WTF, since this is an oil thread now. Why the 0w40 weight and not 5w30?

The German stuff (0w40) gets delicious UOAs in the VQs. Figured I'd give it a shot. German Castrol also does really well.

KaienZ34 · 04-30-2013, 09:07 AM

Crap, I just changed my oil (M1 5w30) last Friday.

b1adesofcha0s · 04-30-2013, 09:24 AM

For Mobil 1, the 0w40 is the only one that is fully synthetic.

phelan · 04-30-2013, 10:37 AM

I've sworn off Mobil 1 since my Subaru started acting funny with it in the system.

BTW Steve now that you have Deja Blue back, do you want the butt plug start button back, or did you pull the trigger on a new one? I mean, this one is slightly used but I'm sure I could pull it out and send it back to you...

(yes i know you already ordered one but i had to get in on this deliciousness)

m4a1mustang · 04-30-2013, 10:41 AM

I already pulled the trigger on a new one. That would have been cute, though.

The Z won't leave you for someone else... just saying.

Welcome back, Steve! Can't wait to see you build it up and maybe join the turbo club.

Ha! Maybe in 3+ years when its no longer a DD.

b1adesofcha0s · 04-30-2013, 11:58 AM

You plan on selling it in 3 years to someone who will put a turbo on it?

wheee! · 04-30-2013, 12:10 PM

Now the smell of the 'stang is gone from under the deck, I'll have to rethink that roadtrip!

...congrats Steve!!
