not to start a war or anything, but why?

I switched to Castrol from M1 due to concerns over M1's reformulation.

yeah, i bought the castrol deal. got the 10-40 for the porsche and the k&n filters for the wife's suv. 10qts and 2 filters for 68.00. it ended up being something like 4.25qt if you factor in the cost of the k&n filters.

Advanced Auto had a screaming weekend deal a few months back. 33% off. Oh wait but tha excluded the oil. But they specially priced the oil at $5.
Before the sale Castrol was nearly $9 per quart. I remember doing a double take, that would have been easily the most expensive oil change since 2004.
