It's not really cheap. You can buy Quaker State Q-Horsepower for $20 a 5qt jug (some places $18)
It's made buy Warren Performance Products.
A quick search will reveal all the info you need.

I use Walmart Supertech Full Synthetic with good results.
My cars have seen many quarts of it in their lifetimes, with good results as well. But it used to be a lot cheaper in price than other synthetics.
With Super Tech Full Synthetic going for $17 and Quaker State Ultimate Durability at $18 (5-qt jugs), at my local WM, I'd spend the extra dollar and get the QS UD.

i noticed that in the new clear bottle, the oil is a bit cloudy. i held it next to a QS bottle for reference and there was a "clear" difference. maybe nothing, maybe not refined as well?
Ya Know, a while ago around 2001-02, a friend asked me to help him change the oil/filter in his Mercury Grand Marquis as he couldn't get off the oil filter the time before(we had to jack up the front end of the car & let the front wheels hang in order to drop the filted down). Annnyyywaaayyy, he brought whith him Castrol SynTec 5W30 and a Fram filter. What I noticed as I was pouring in the oil is, how cloudy the SynTec looked compared to just about any oil that I've used recently. I was just in W*M last night and saw the clear bottles of ST Syn and I agree that it too is cloudy. HMMMMMMM! This ST Syn were in the clear WPP Bottles!
It has the GM 4718m cert, must be pretty decent

When did it get that? The last time I checked out the Supertech syn it did not have the 4718M cert.

For several months, at least. It's only listed on the clear bottles, from what I've noticed.

It is ok. Not great, but good for normal OCI when put with a decent filter.

Wal-Mart has to have a MSDS sheet on file at EACH retail location that stocks supertech oil. Also, they MUST furnish it upon request. Simply ask for one and see what is listed on it.

No PDS, though.
