It’s also usually available on Amazon for $62.50 per 3 gallons shipped, which for me is cheaper due to sale tax.

Amazon Amazon

Nevermind...looks like Amazon is now collecting sales tax on it😡

Ca. is starting to crack down on internet sales that have no sales tax. Must claim them on your annual taxes. It was new for 2017 per our CPA.

Sort of a hijack here, but I was curious if any PBE users have any recent UOA results they could post?

Hey Mark, long time. I have one for my 6.7 but can't find where I put it. The only reason I had one done was because it seemed to be making oil. Oil on the stick went up app. 1/8th ". Blackstone came back and said that it was at an acceptable percentage. If I find it I will post it. All other readings were in the good also. Nothing abnormal.

Yep, the recent SCOTUS decision lets states tax internet sales.

Is this better than Rotella? That's a few cents cheaper at Walmart.

In my case, it would be the opposite. I have two Walmarts closer than any NAPA. I don't even know where there is a NAPA, they closed the only one I knew about last month, and I'd have passed another couple of Walmarts getting to it.

But actually, that Walmart price is off their website, and it's free shipping if you buy at least two gallons. They have 15-40 synthetic for $16. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Shell-Rot...-gal/102646780

15W40 isn't synthetic. 5W40 is.

Yes, I know. The link was to 5/40 at $19.97/gal. Do you just not like Walmart?

Why do they offer this 15/40 Rotella Synthetic at $16? Is it a typo? https://www.walmart.com/ip/Shell-Rot...-gal/189732446

No, just correcting your post that stated 15W40 being synthetic.
