Has anyone tried this in their scoot...

how many miles you ride a year?
how long will it take you to go thru 20 quarts of oil?

Hmmm... so up there synthetic goes for $25/qt and this 5 gal. pail of synthetic oil goes for $7.50/qt.... Seems like a pretty big discount for just a 5 gallon pail of oil...

Makes me skeptical of the base stock and/o additive packages... they are saving money somewhere...

Since I've never heard of it, I would want to learn more about it. At minimum, I would make sure it has the same API service rating as any other oil I'm comparing it to. Before using it, I would make sure it has the API service rating called for by the vehicle manufacturer I was going to use it in... some oils claim to be "the same as" but aren't actually rated by API....

Do your oils use API service ratings up there..... ?

yes we have the same ratings as the USA...just saw it on Amazon and looked up their website...they are located in Texas.. just thought I'd ask and see if anyone's tried it and thoughts.

Oh, the joys of living in Canada! $35/quart for Mobil-1 20W50 motor oil. A number of years ago, many of my work associates lived in Ontario. When they visited us in PA, they would stock up on stuff they couldn't buy in Canada like Weed-B-Gone. I guess it's illegal to kill dandelions in Canada.
