Thats a great price for M1, around here its $8+ recently, big hike in the last 2-3 months, I was paying closer to $5 not long ago. Hopefully just a localized spike. If not maybe I'll order 100 quarts and sell 'em out of the back of my car.

(about two months ago) For the time being, I'll stick to buying M1 at the grocery store, especially now that Meijer sale prices are better than the regular price at that other store I don't go to anymore. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
