Costco full synthetic motor oil

Full synthetic is on sale for $1.10 per qt. Probably the cheapest I have ever seen a full synthetic. I know you dumb asses don’t have FaceBook so I had to post it here.

People actually change their oil?
I drive until it explodes and buy a new car.
Not a poor.

Same oil as name brands.

Example: Pennzoil isn't even same base stock as costco.
costco additive package is different too.
I'm not a poor. Pennzoil or maybe step up to Royal Purple. Maybe even Redline if I feels like it.

Wrong, but it is still good, certified oil.
This is the list of all the brands the manufacture of Kirkland oil makes and what certifications/specifications each oil meets.

Damn that’s cheap. I’m gonna go horde some. Can even use it as hand sanitizer.

That has got to be recycled oil or some shite like that...

Project Farm testing Kirkland oil.

Warren makes Costco Oil
Warren is a legit oil manufacturer
They also make Wal-Mart and a few auto retail company brands.

That’s actually not true, lol
Shell purchases multiple group 2 base oils For their syn-blends and multiple group 3 base oils for their full-syn to manufacture their oil, as does nearly every other major oil manufacturer. There is a 100% chance they are using the same base oils at times as Warren is.
They also all use cookie cutter additive packs from Afton, Lubrizol, Infinium and other additive manufacturers
shite, Shell has companies like Smittys and Amalie packaging for them.
Do you typically associate quality oil with Smittys?

Pennzoil full syn base stock is as you say. Technically it is Group III, HOWEVER, by starting with natural gas you have a limited range of input molecules (thus purer). These are turned to a waxy substance through Fischer-Tropsch. This wax is then fed into the hydrocracker to get your Group III base oil, hence not the same as costco.
The problem with using the Group # as the only identifier is that it leads people to thinking the finished product will be the same.

At least you drive it till it explodes. Would really suck to buy a used vehicle you owned.

The valvoline refined recycled oil was the shite.

I could dumb it down for you but I'm not.

If I'm not mistaken, Pennzoil was bought by Shell and the base oil used is from their Pearl GTL facility in Qatar. 100% sulfur free. Lots of stuff is added to make engine lube oil, base oil stock, crumb rubber, and other chemicals.
