Title says it all. Does Wally-Mart carry 5W40 Mobil 1?

Other sources? Pep Boys perhaps?

Haven't ever seen 5W40 or 0W40 at Wally's. The chain stores (Advance, Auto Zone, etc.) all have it. Found the Castrol 5W50 in Advance last week.

I don't normally shop at Wal-Mart, but I purchased 9 quarts of 0-W40 there about a month ago.

The Wal-Mart in my area does not carry Mobile 1 0w-40.

I bought 0w-40 on sale at Advanced Auto for $4.98 per qt. about two months ago. However, I think the sale has ended since then.

Chad,
I havn't been able to source Mobile 1 in the 5-40 anywhere around me locally but the race shop right up the road carries Redline in 5-40 which I have sitting in my garage getting ready to go into the car.

Wal-Mart sells the 5W-40 Mobil 1 for turbo diesels often referred to as Delvac. It is also SAE rated for gasoline engines and has been used by member here with good results.
