Cheapest Mobil 1

What's the cheapest place to get Mobil 1 these days? Seems like the price has gone up a lot. All the Kragens and Targets around me sell it for $5.99/qt.

depends on the weather, u're suppose to use 5W-30 for colder weathers and 10W-30 for hotter ones. if you're in the bay area, i think you can just stick with 10w-30 the whole year . i just stick with whats in the manual. although i might swtich to 10W in the summer if it gets too hot.

I run 5w-30 because it's better when you are up in Tahoe. Summers, I run 10w-30.

Target used to have quarts for $3.29.

I think wally world jugs are the cheapest now though.
