Trying to buy Mobil One Motor Oil

Does anybody know how I can buy Mobil One motor oil by the case on line? I don't seem to be able to find it. Kragen.com only sells other brands. Pepboys does not sell motor oil on line. Thank you.

Dunno about online, but are you near a CostCo???

They have 6 quarts of Mobil 1 for $22 here in my neck of the woods, which is the same price as 5 quarts at Walmart...

Went to the local Costco this morning. They don't have Mobil One. Went to Target and it only sells by individual containers.

You can do a lot better at Pep Boys right now. Spend $1 for one of their MADD calendars, rip out the Mobil 1 "buy 3 get 3 free" coupon, and get a case for $15 (including calendar cost). I've built up a nice supply of Mobil 1.

It's the calendars sold by Pepboys to support Mothers Against Drunk Driving. $1 each.

Thanks, but it's not a new find. It's been pretty common knowledge for months, in fact, it's getting harder and harder to find the calendars. I bought the last two on display at one Pep Boys a few weeks ago, but they said they had another box of calendars in the back of the store. Haven't had a chance to check back and see. BTW, there are lots of other great coupons in the calendar as well.

0W20, in fact, it even says so on the bottle ("Recommended for Ford and Honda 5W20 service")

I thought that RoadRage found that it's better to use 10W-30? Correct me if I'm wrong, he's saying something that it will protect the engine better and have better performance.

I've read this forum faithfully since October and I do not recall seeing a thread about the calendars... Nonetheless, I thought it was worth another mention. Hopefully some new people get to save some $ still...

Be aware that it is Mobil saying this, not Honda or Ford. I bet they (Mobil) would like you to believe that Honda recommends their oil, but that isn't so. I'm not knocking Mobil 1 oil; I have used it for many years and will continue to do so. It's great stuff.

Use 5W-30 if you want your car to last. The 5W-20 stuff is for EPA numbers, not endurance. Warmer climates can get by with 10W-30.
