More Nanny state bull.

People are so weak minded that this is the level of baby sitting they need to make it thru life.

It pretty plainly say's Non-Detergent on the front of the bottle,, but the video clip isn't showing that too well.
Let's all hate Dollar Store.

If you buy your oil at the dollar store I don't feel sorry for you.

This came up over a year ago when someone read the bottle of oil they sold and made a stink about it. I've been to my local dollar store and they still sell some I've never heard of brand oils for old cars. I would never buy any of that stuff, but I can understand how some people with little money to spend on oil could, thinking it's a deal.,,

Lazy people can't be bothered to read the label, so it's the store's fault. And of course the cashier doesn't know about it, it's not Napa.

I'm gonna put olive oil in my engine and then sue the grocery store.

The label says oil. It should be all the same right?
