  • good deal on oil?

    Well since spring is right around the corner and it will be time for an oil change i was wondering what you guys use in your babies!! I was looking at deals on oils and found this at advanced auto parts, I am switching from mobil1 to synpower, cause m1 just isn't the same anymore.

    Synpower:

      I use RP or the valvoline synthetic, will be switching to GC when the new motor comes in. FYI fram filters are TERRIBLE.

                I also use the Synpower in my car and like it. I usually pay about $35 for it when it's regularly priced so I guess the $10 in savings is ok. But I don't use the FRAM I always use K&N.

                  German Castrol w/ a Mobil 1 filter for me. Just used up the last of my stock earlier this week...gotta wait till it goes on sale again. (Last time I bought it I got 5 quarts+a mobil 1 filter for $25+tax...1 quart of the stuff is going for $7 now and those filters are $10 a piece )

                    Since my car was new its had nothing but Mobil 1 and AC Delco filters. When I took ownership of the car I stuck with Mobil 1 but I use K&N filters.
