I went to buy a case of Valvoline 10/30 (standard, not VR-1 or synthetic) today as I need to change the oil and filter in the GTO and 300. Standard, 10/30 is going for over $5.00 PER QUART! WTF????
 
Your kidding? I buy all motor oil at Wal Mart. I can save about ten bucks for five quarts purchased over an auto parts store. five bucks is outrageous!
 
Just checked Wal Mart online and it's the same deal. $5.00+ per quart. WTF happened??? I usually pay around $2.00 per quart from Kragen/O'Riley's.
 
Even Walmart oil is over $2.50.
I'm not a snob. I use Walmart oil.
Never once in my life have I ever heard from anybody when something went wrong, have them say, "musta been that Walmart oil..."

The quality or brand of oil is not as important as how often you change it. Refined oil is good if changed at 2-3 thousand miles.
