Since I got my dealership, I've found that shipping less than a case of anything the shipping cancels out the savings I could give them. |

I hear ya, I always try to order in bulk, plus its not like it will go bad any time soon. Couple of local shops sell it but at a rather jacked up price, but thats par for the course in this area.

Yeah, for the people I sell to that I "mark up" the price, my final price is still below listed price at the stores BEFORE tax.

I have been jonesin' to switch to Amsoil products. My mom has a higher mileage Nissan Altima that I have heard from a ton of altima forums that Amsoil 0w30 is the way to go....
I have never had to change the oil on the 500, and I probably wont before I go to sell her. For an old engine, she is very easy on oil.... Might go the Amsoil way on my next bike though, because I hated how Repsol made my R6 sound mechanically. Dont lie.... you know you love us....

Ive been using repsol for a while with gold results, I went out on a limb and used mobil 1 recently because I couldn't find enough repsol for the bikes in my area, sp day I really have not noticed a difference.
But I did see a difference when I started using repsol exclusively a while back, switching from the generic oil that the store always sold me |
