In price comparisons, remember that you're not getting a _good_ dino (nor a
_good_ filter) at those quick oil change shops. If you must go to one of
those shops, and don't want to pay for full synthetic, get a blend (because
it's a good oil), and bring your own OEM filter. Of course, if you do it
yourself, everything is under your control.

Best regards,
