Yes, have to agree, oil does seem to be getting much more expensive.
I just wait for big reductions,sales, and go buy a few bottles.

I just stock up when it's on sale too, Castrol Edge 0W-40 can range from $50 to $100 at times
Supercheap price match it less $1.00, with the interwebs it's pretty easy to get it cheaper

Why would full synthetic go up? Is there no mineral oil in the stuff? Rip off.

Yes, there are many man-made additives in it, but the base oil is still made from distilled crude. Dr Terry |
