The closest Farm and Fleet to my house is I think in Belvideer. Driving all that way to save a few bucks isnt worth it. Sounds like a DEAL if there is one near you though.

Thats cheap but no one would ever beat this sale. Lee Auto Parts had a birthday sale a few months back. I bought a CASE of oil for $1.20, 10 cents a quart. It was the ghetto store brand but you still couldnt beat the price, I use it in our beaterz.

Hmm.. so the Mobil 1 on sale isnt Synthetic? Im just assuming running synthetic longer is better then running dino longer.. granted 7k is bad enough.

The "Drive Clean" branded Mobil oil is like $2 something a quart vs the $5 something for the M1 or M1 Extended performance, because the drive clean oil isnt a full synthetic.

the drive clean isnt a synthetic at all

its just dino


the standard mobile 1 synthetic is technically rated at 7500 miles.

the extended performance is synthetic as well, but with different formulation, etc and rated at 15000

From what I read on the quart, and on the website the Drive Clean 7500 is a synthetic blend oil while the 5000 is just conventional oil.
