Mike:  I could be a little off on the price.  That is what I had been paying 
up to now.  Purchased at Kragen (Checker, Schuck's, Kragen, Murry's), they 
usually offer a reduced in-store case-lot price plus a mail-in rebate.  The 
per-quart price may be up over $1 now but it still beats $5 per quart.  I'll 
know the next time Kragen does it.  Their ad comes with the Sunday paper.
