It is frustrating. I spoke to the Shell distributor yesterday, to ask about the product. I might as well have asked about a 0w-20 that had a Cummins approval and an A3/B4 on it all at the same time. He never heard of this product yet.
I honestly wish that oil distributors actually took an interest in their product line (these place only sells Rotella and Formula Shell; they don't even have to concern themselves with the Pennzoil or Quaker State lineups), rather than solely in selling a pallet of whatever, as long as "whatever" has a price.
There's a reason for there to be excitement about this product. Someone who sells the Rotella line should have some information about it. Does Shell not send out literature to its reps? Are Shell reps forbidden from checking the Shell website?
