Go to Pep Boys and stop and the cashier counter on the way in. Ask to buy a 2005 PeP Boys calander (they're $1). Inside, there are coupons for all kinds of stuff - but there's one coupon for Mobil 1: Buy 3 Get 3 Free. A quart (at least for me) is $5.40, so $5.4 X 3 = $16.20. Save $16.20 for spending a buck!
That's the best price I've seen for Mobil 1 and I belong to Sam's Club too!
I'd advise you to hurry in to get the calander b/c they probably won't be around much longer. I bought 6 calanders when I was there. The coupons are good thru '05.

So I spent $2.00 a qt. more on Amsoil. Thats only about $10 per year more.
RIGHT?

So I did notice an increase in my gas mileage (several %) since I made the switch from Mobil 1 to Amsoil. The best I ever did when I was using Mobil 1 was 460 miles on a tank of all highway driving which was under very similar driving conditions. It's funnny that many folks in the U.S. complain about the high price of fuel.......let's say $2.00 - $2.25 a gallon. When we do the conversion up here in Canada, (we use litres & the price is over $0.90 a litre), That would mean we pay about $3.40 a gallon using your gallons (3.78 litres for 1 U.S. gallon) & close to $4.08 a gallon using the imperial measurments (4.54 of our litres is our gallon up here). So to me, it's still dirt cheap to fill up south of the border always with premium!
Just don't tell us Canadians about expensive gasoline!
