At a shop I worked at a couple of years ago we looked into buying bulk, and if we bought 55 gallons at a time, we saved only .20 cents a quart. The price was still higher than Costco, one case at a time, but it was delivered, and convenient to be able to pump it in rather than pour out of quart bottles.

kurt m, to your point, I think we'll see a shift back to non-EP version of heavier weight M1. They may even drop having EP and non-EP versions of the product and go back to one variant. They've pushed the price envelop too far and most people would rather use non-EP for $1 less per quart. I know i would. I don't think the 5,000, 7,000, and 15,000 mile nonmenclature and strategy is working for Mobil either.

I know a lot of Porsche people have switched to Amsoil who used to use Mobil 1 and have enjoyed that product much better! One friend of mine who used Mobil 1 in her 993 was having it smoke on start up, but when she switched to Amsoil it went away! Just my $.02 I wanted to throw in!

If she ever goes back tell her to let the 993 idle for 30 seconds before she turns it off and it will more than likely stop smoking on startup.
