Excellent.

Thanks for the post.

Sams occasionally runs REALLY good specials. Bought tires for our second car-- $80 off a set of 4 AND free mounting and balancing (another $60 off regular price). A one day special they do a couple of times a year.

Found a real quality clerk (rare in today's culture) at our local Sams who called when they ran that special.

Ran that in my Class A 460 with zero problems.

That's a great deal. Autozone is $20 a gallon. This deal is less than $11 per gallon. Anyone know what oil shelf life is?

Probably a LOT longer than it would ever stay on the shelf at a modern (just in time inventory system) store.

Asking it a different way-- how many day's supply do you think a store would have on hand?

I gotta do some research to see if I can run that in my '04 CAT C-7

Ran that in my c7 2004 fun mover 39c for 12 years, 93k miles.

Thanks for the heads up. Bought 2 cases yesterday. That price is one heck of a deal. I guess I'm back to doing my own oil changes as the local dealer with a 4 for $200 deal has been sold. The new owner is not going to offer the same deal.

Probably five years, more or less for unopened containers.
Rural King has an everyday price of less than $11/gallon, with the purchase of a 55 gallon drum. Anyone for an oil changing party and I'm up for 8.25 gallons?
Bought from them, last time around in 5 gallon containers with a good rebate offered, except can't remember the price now.

Absolutely. One of the better choices (meets Caterpillar specs, good price AND is available everywhere-- including all Walmarts).

BTW, the Porsche mechanic who taught me how to overhaul engines used it in his Porsches starting in the early 1960's. No idea if it meets current Porsche specs-- he had a 356!

I’m confused (does not take much)...oil made from millions of years old crude only has a 5 year shelf life???
