The sign said limit 6 per customer but I bought 7 and got the sale price on all of them.

Default good, need it for 50k service on friday. stopped by local performance shop who carries Amsoil 0w30

priced a $8.35 per qt. Ouch!

although, I only need 4 v 7 ;-)

4 x $8.35 = $33.40
7 x $4.08 = $28.56

If the dealer wasn't checking my oil pan plug for being stripped, I'd probably stiwch to Amsoil this service. I think I'll wait to see if they'll be replaced just the plug, retapping pan, or replacing pan. I'd prefer they didn't waste $35 worth of oil fillig it and then finding out what they needed to replace.

If AutoZone in Philly doesn't have the M1 on sale, I'll stop by the nearest Mobil distributor who sells 6pack cases at $4.33 per qt.

Default Ive been in there a few times over the past weeks and they have only 1 qt in stock

They ordered some for me yesterday, but who knows if it really will come in on fri and if they will have the sale price.

They annoy me, but dont know where else to get at a decent price. no one has in stock.

Default How did the drain plug end up cross threaded?

FYI, I was shocked as well when I walked into that perf. shop looking for Amsoil. As if $7.99 wasn't high enough...$8.35?!?? *ugh*
