Still a good deal overall.
No mention of price on that oil/filter combo and why didn't you just buy a third five quart jug? Are you retiring from changing oils after this one?
Doesn't Florida have Walmart there? You probably get the same combo at the same everyday prices at Walmart and even get to improve on the oil filter choice.
I paid $27.99 for each 5 quart jug and oil filter (combined). I use the Motorcraft filters as I am still under warranty with my Ford Mustang although I will probably change to napa gold (Wix) once out of the warranty mileage. I hate going to Wal-mart. Between the rude people shopping there, and the rude people that work there,, I dont feel the need to support them. Life is to short for me to worry about a $25.00 to $50.00 differance in oil change costs each year.
Sounds like a good deal to me. Don't worry about the peanut gallery questioning your purchases.
Thank you PimTac and I dont worry about it at all. Automobiles and mechanical tinkering are a hobby of mine so I dont mind spending a little more as I see fit. If oil change costs break my fiscal budget then I have bigger problems I should be dealing with. I went with the Quaker State synthetic as the store "special" was the same price as buying the Motorcraft semi-synthetic. I've used Pennzoil and Quaker State oils for many years and haven't had any issues with their Products.
