Mobil 1 with SuperSynTM 0W-30 Any remarks? Don't know the price locally but would work out to $6.99 quart ($41.94 cs.) with free shipping on a combined order from AutoBarn (anyone dealt with them?) There's also a $20. off coupon and and adding a couple of cases to the order would qualify it for that discount.
