They take 6.5, and what ya do is take the great offer from Advanced Auto and just buy another two quarts. Still saves a ton of $$.

Or, if you're like me, you've been stocking up every time these deals come around and there are several quarts in your garage already.

Picked mine up yesterday --
there is a car wash by my house that has oil change service. I spoke with the owner and for $15, they will change the oil/filter and let me watch in them do it....this is with me providing the oil/filter. I told him my car does not leave my sight. He understands us Corvette owners....They have service pits so no lifting the car!!

I agree, but I think that with Penzoil coming out with their Ultra Synthetic that I think they want to empty their warehouses of the "old stuff." Advance Auto probably bout their stock months ago at the regular price. BTW, the regular price at the Exchange is 7.25

Good price on both the Mobil 1 and the Penzoil. Just wish I lived closer to a military base - Ft. Leonard Wood is about 100 miles from me and Whiteman AFB is about the same.

Thanks a lot!

I was at Ft Leonard Wood in 1969 and hoped to never hear those words again.

Actually, it was just kind of boring. Highpoint was going to the movies in Rolla!
