Probably because a month ago you could get a five quart Jug of Formula Shell at Home Depot for $9.88.

2007 Infiniti G35x 130,677 Miles

Had to change oil mid way through my normal 10K OCI in the 2017 Fusion. Reason: A slight weep of oil around the Timing chain cover that I discovered three months ago. Finally had Ford do the work under warranty last week. They had to change oil as some sealer debris fell into the oil pan, so they changed oil and filter and put in MC 5-20 and MC 910 filter. I put some 600 miles with the MC oil and didn't like the engine noise, so I put in M1 0-20EP and my engine is back to normal.


Out: Mc 5-20

In: M1 0-20EP

Filter: MC FL 910
 
2001 Tundra V8 2
almost 200K
OCI - maybe 7K miles? maybe 1.5 years?

Out: 7 quarts Max-Life 5w30 SemiSyn, Purolater syn big filter
In: 7 quarts M1 High Mileage 5w30 M1 bazillion mile M-301 filter

This truck runs like new...
 
2005 Mustang GT
133k miles on car, 3k on oil/filter
