<blockquote type="CITE" style="BORDER-LEFT:#0000ff 2px solid;MARGIN-LEFT:5px;MARGIN-RIGHT:0px;PADDING-LEFT:5px">I too have stuck with Valvoline VR1, and I use the off the shelf 20W-50. It has gone from a $2.99 a quart oil to $6.99 and that puts it within a few bucks of some of the dedicated stuff. I may reconsider this in the future and abandon my admittedly too frequent oil dumping schedule.<br>

</font><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR:#ffffff" color="#400040" face="Arial" size="2">Historically the FOT has been great about calling out dealers who are having sales on desireable products like VALVOLINE VR1. The sales usually offer great value, and make it worth while to buy a stash and put it on the shelf. <br>
<br>
If you see it on sale at a particular supplier, post a notice on the FOT list.<br>
