I will
happily GLADLY pay well
OVER $50.00 for a 5L jug of the D1G2 DXG when it is available!
BTW; Most places get ~ $13.19/quart for the 5W-30 ESP Formula, but yes, depending on how much you buy at a time online, that can go down to ~$8.50/quart. (Does XOM even bottle it in 5 quart jugs?)
I can't remember the exact deal I got on ESP, something like $100 for 12 liters on Amazon...all I know is that it was under $10/l. This was a while ago and I think it was more expensive there the last time I looked...I have noticed that 4l or 5l jugs are available in Europe, but have never seen them in a shop or on Amazon here.
I'm with you on the Ravenol, interested to try it even at the present Amazon prices. Just need d1G2 to show up!
I don’t know why I’m so intrigued with Ravenol but I am - I don’t know why I’m so intrigued with freaking engine oil but here I am. Does anyone have any idea when Ravenol 0W-20 DFE will be available in the US? It’s listed on the Ravenol America website but has no price and can not be added to the cart.
One of the areas where I think Ravenol does a poor job is in their marketing. The three different varieties of 0W-20 come in the same container, use virtually the same language in their description, seem to be a similar formulation and while I guess they’re specifications are different, it’s not until you see their spec sheets side-by-side you see any obvious differences in the products.
