Default 5 quart Mobil One for $17!!!

I was a Walmart here in Round Rock Texas today and saw that Mobil one was one sale for $17.88 for a 5 quart bucket. I bought a few. Thought I would pass it along so everyone on the forum could take advantage of this sale. Hope that all walmarts in the US are having the sale right now.

My Wal-Mart has the quart size containers for around $3.50. It comes out to about the same price. I would rather have the quart size containers.

I am talking about the synthetic mobile one that normally sells for about 4.50 a quart or 26.95 for a case. I think it is a very good oil. No proff just believe it is. Most people on the forum use Mobil one oil I believe. Could make for an interesting poll :rolleyes:

Mobil1 is, IMHO, the best oil you can buy... and there is a Walmart right down the street from my house. Guess where I'm going today? :D

Saw the oil today in WalMart, as we shopped for a new vacum, and grabbed two. Dumb Luck as we rarely visit the store. The vacum? I sucked up some nuts and parts with the old one. Parts left over from the Mustang, I'm sure.

I guess by "base" you mean stock. GM recommends 5-30wt. I did use Molile -1.... 0-30wt. while the outside temps dropped below 25 deg. during the mountain winters here in No. Cal.
