went to the parts store tonight, purchased 5 quarts or royal purple and 1 fram oil filter the total $49.19.........christ i had almost forgotten how expensive it was to do a oil change. i know im asking for it for buying that brand but it is worth it. but man 50 bucks a month is just craaaaaaaaaaaazy lol

 

I use dino and change the oil every 5k, $21.97 at Econolube.

 

WHY is it these peole can screw us daily and all we do is roll over & die?

How many years has this gone one?

And they continue to report BILLIONS of dollars in profits in quarters. Not years. And yet we all roll over and die?

Wonder how they'd like going to the store amd today a gal/milk is $3.49. Tomorrow it's $5. On sunday it's now $5.25/gal.

Or bread, fruit, soup, veggies, snackcakes, or personal items like soap, toilet paper, razors, tooth brushes.

Some will say it's a supply & demand thing. What people don't need toilet paper?

 

i guess my main gripe here is last oil change i got the same everything but it was under 40 bucks. so within the past few months the oil prices have jacked it up that much. wonder how much it'll be next time

 

Makes me glad I purchased 5 years of service when I bought the Monte. Being a fixed price they cant hit me with the inflation. I wish there was a service like that for petro.

jr d00d you aint lieing there man having a set price for gas would be awesome and well worth a premium price. and space d00d i feel your pain seeing as howi HAVE to run 93 octane or higher in my car and im starting to feel the pinch at the pump desperatly. but i doubt our goverment will help us because the members in the goverment are gettin their pockets filled up too nicely by the oil companies. just wish i could figure out a way to take some of those BILLIONS of dollars they are making every month and stuff it in our pockets instead

 

Chris, you aren't very far from the truth when it comes to your opinions of Washington politics.

Those politicians may now get the money directly, but the moneydoes reach them somehow.

 

Hmmm. Might be where you live to or just the cost of Royal Purple.

I can get 5 quarts Mobile 1 synthetic 15,000 mile for 22 bucks.

 

i paid 7.28 per quart. last time i bought it it was 5.49 a quart. so that means it went up by 1.79 per quart since october. so that means that before taxes i paid 8.95 more for the oil this time around. so i guess that means when i change oil again in may-june ill probably be paying $9.99+ per quart or more. the rich get richer the poor die from starvation and our goverment dont care as long as they get a fat wad for it all.
