So, I don't think that Jiffy Lube is too far off, just a little more aggressive and profit motivated.

If GE Fleet is using normal DINO oil, I think the 4-5 range is good. Keep in mind, they only really care about costs while they have the car, which is short range.

I assume our Box owners are thinking longer term but who knows?
