MaxLife 5W20 Full Synthetic

[94supraonchrome]

I am unable to find any MaxLife 5W20 Full Synthetic around south central Kentucky. The MaxLife 5W20 Synthetic Blend is plentiful. Anyone got any ideas on where to find some?

I do not believe the 5w20 is available in a full synthetic in the U.S., but from what i've heard one is currently in development.

ML full syn is the petrochemical equivalent of BigFoot. There has been unconfirmed sightings, and rumors and talk is passed around, but it really doesn't exist. Trust me, I tried to find it!

And, according to their link, they have 5 and 10w 30 for full syn, not 5w20

I really think i've seen this stuff. It's been a few years, but i remember looking over a few quarts and pondering giving it a try. Haven't seen it in awhile though. I feel like it was at a bargain place though, maybe big lots?

that link is almost a year old, they show the 5W20 on thier site

sure do...click on grades. You might just want to get a 55gal drum so you don't have to keep searching for it.

That's actually a typo, that's the same part numbers as the maxlife syn blend. I've been told by the higher ups in the company that a 5w20 is in development but it is not currently available, at least not in the U.S.

This appears to have correct part numbers:
