[s-cars] Black Gold, Texas Tea, Oil That Is

[LL - NY]

BTW, at least at the local WallyMart, they're selling Rotella Synthetic in
1 gallon jugs vs. Mobil 1 (standard grade, can't find Truck/SUV here) in the
5 qt jugs. Price/qt works out about the same, so Rotella is about the same
price as M1. Just an FYI, which has prompted me to look into the Pennzoil
for at least the Saabaru.
