    I also get mine at wal-mart. Seems to be the cheapest. Around here, they only carry 1 gallon jugs so you are forced to either buy one extra quart or just pick up an extra gallon to have on hand. (that's what I did)

    The WalMart near me always has it. They also have the 1 quart bottles, but they're hard to find.

    Do they carry the synthetic or just the 15W-40 truck oil? I've never seen the synthetic at Menards. But always at Fleet Farm.

    I've bought T6 at both Fleet Farm and Walmart. Fleet Farm is more likely to have it in stock.

    I just picked some up from WalMart in BP. I then went to Fleet Farm and they had it as well, but $1 cheaper per gallon.

    There are a few that do. You wont notice much at first, you will notice it at the next oil change though, especially if you have been using Mobil 1. The Rotella remains pretty consistent throughout the life of the oil, so the drastic "chattering engine to silent engine" you would normally see at 3000 miles with the M1 doesn't happen with the Rotella.

    I may be wrong but I thought I saw Rotella at Sam's club.

    You may have, Sam's Club is basically just Walmart in bulk with a subscription fee.

    Crazy that at Walmart its around 22 bucks for a gallon, but over 7 bucks for a single quart. Wow, what a price increase for a single quart.
