I understand.
I have hundreds of quarts of oil I've bought either dirt cheap on clearance or FAR.
Still, however cheap the stuff was, you should still at least get some reasonable use out of it.
The BMW is now close to the 4K I wanted to run the Nexgen Maxlife, but not quite there.
I have two more jugs of FAR Nexgen Maxlife 10W-40 waiting for their turn, as well as four jugs of red bottle Maxlife.
I'm anxious to drain the oil and pull a sample, but I will wait until I have 4K on the oil, probably next week, maybe this one if I do an optional out of town trek for work before the end of the week.
I do want to see the UOA, though.
We'll see if I'm right about residual TBN.
