the price of oil

[clemsonfor]

I bought 6 cases of 6 gallons per case of Castrol 15W40 back a few months ago at Auto Zone for $9.99 per gallon.

I have not bought anything in QTS in years now. Gallons and 5 QT Jugs are the only way to go.

Yep, no opening a ton of bottles, having an arm full of bottles to throw away.

I operate a small lube distributorship, have Conoco and Chevron mainly that I sell. CJ-4 delo in gallons are 33.50 for a 3 jug case, my cost. My dealer does not make a ton off me either. Top notch oil is going to cost these days, but it's still cheap compared to breaking down, or overhauling, I'll pay the difference for name brand, unless it's going into the machine from the junk yard and it's about to die anyhow.

Sometimes those 'junkyard machines' can fool a person.

I once traded a 4 speed transmission for an old Suzuki 250cc street bike. We carried the bike to the Pinto station wagon to get it to my house.........the wheels wouldn't even turn.

I took that bike home, tore it to pieces, put it back together(with new tires), and other than the tires.............I had under 50 bucks to get it operational.

Sold that bike for 10 times what I had invested in it.............and they still got a 'steal of a deal'. The bike was a collectors item.
67 Suzuki 250 cc 2cyl. street bike. I actually had 2 of them.
