    Yep, cheap oil actually got me going back to WalMart after a few years of being fed up with the place. Now I head there for car fluids, wipers and such unless the local parts stores have a good sale.

    bone stock save for the block lift that came on it with the open country m/t.
    now if they only had a decent selection of oil filters to go with the cheaper oil prices.

    Motorcraft is made by Purolator I believe, hence the reason it's a good filter. I used them in my V8 Explorer without fail.

    I've always bought my oil at Walmart. There simply isn't anywhere cheaper. I stop by Advance and grab a bunch of PureOne filters when they're on sale.

    Got 6 qt.'s of Penzoil synthetic and a Super Tech filter today for <$30 yesterday. Would have got Mobil 1, but they were sold out of 1 qt bottles of 5w20.

    They had Mobil 1 0w20 and 0w30 in stock for the first time as well.

    what's the difference in 0w20 and 0w30?

    I think I'll get the amsoil for the winter time... the tech told me 25k interval change... that's regular driving... hard to change oil in the cold outside!!

    Sure, it is cheap, but whenever I go there is never any 5w-20 M1. This is one of largest wal-marts in the city too.

    Just checked out the other day with Mobil 1, Shotgun shells, and Coors Light. Trouble is down here you need to bring a Spanish to English dictionary, but it's definately the way to go for tons of stuff.
