Best Mobil 1 Price..??

[Brucelee]

There are currently two Mobil 1 fully synthetic oils. To my knowledge, there is ONLY ONE 0W-40 Weight Euro Blend.

To verify, check out

Good luck!

Hi,

Thanks for everyone's replies. I tried to follow-up on several of your leads, but found that most retail outlets do not carry Mobil 1 in the 10W-40 or 0W-40 weights here, apparently due to low demand for it. Those few I did find who carried it wanted $5.99/qt. for it.

So, I looked up and contacted the Mobil/Exxon Distributor here in town, Lubrication Technologies. Turns out that they'll do Will Call sales to the Public and I was able to acquire it at $3.66/qt., minimum of 12 qt. purchase, so I have a couple extra for top ups. I pass this along because the savings make it worthwhile to see if there's a Distributor in your area. Hope this helps...

Jim, this is incredible news for you! You can become an even richer man, and now have a way to finance that next sports car purchase!

If you bought all the Mobil 1 you can from the Lubrication Tech. people for $3.66 and then sold it into the Twin Cities marketplace at market price ($5.50) that's a whopping 50.27% return on your investment (before expenses)!! Not a bad day's work.

Please feel free to cut me into the action, since I was kind enough to bring this to your attention !!!! Send me a PM for my Pay Pal account information!!

That is a great price.

Keep in mind that Wally World sells Fully Syn Rotella for $3.45 per qt.

How did you determine the local distributor? It doesn't scream at me when I look at their site...

Hi,

I went to the Exxon / Mobil Site. There, they have a Map Locator which gives the information on their distributors. Here's the link: http://www.prod.exxonmobil.com/channelpartners/ns_distributor_directory.jsp

I was at Target in Woodland Hills, CA this afternoon. Mobil 1 15w50 was $1.22 a quart. The only other kind they had was 5w30 at $5+ per quart. It looked like they are emptying out their automotive section in advance of the holidays. I only use 0w40 in my Boxster, but use 15w50 in my '88 Toyota pickup, so this was a huge savings (over the usual $4-5 per quart). Not much left on the shelf, and as always, YMMV

My guess is that this is the old Redcap 15W-50. Still great stuff at a great price.

In your climate, you could use that weight with no issue.

Thanks
