I've got 400 hours on Wally World 15W50. Still runs like new and doesn't burn a drop. Great oil pressure too. I must get lucky and always pick up the jugs they intended for O'Reilly's that got mixed in with the Wally jugs.

On this walmart oil debate, it would be interesting as Walmart's house Super Tech brand get's pretty good test reviews for many of their types of oils.
We all know by now, most companies selling to Walmart, Home Depot, or etc has lesser/cheaper models of there products that are sold exclusive or near exclusive to those places....however different product #'s, model names, etc.... Look at house fixtures - pretty easy to see. Anyway - I'd be shocked if Mobil did this with there Mobil 1 Synthetic oils.....but I've been shocked before and continue to be shocked near every day (atleast a few times a week) in my business what products are made like absolute schit. |

I never paid close attention, but found this out once trying to return some oil I stockpiled for a vehicle I had sold. |

Wally jugs ARE specifically printed only for Wal*Mart.

Last Benz went 357,000 mostly on $24 Walmart Mobil 1. Sold it at 357,000 miles. It's still driving around town.I don't believe Walmart oil is any different then the $36 auto parts store Mobil 1.

So what you are saying is the oil company has a special line just for walmart? So what, walmart wants their name on it somewhere. That's just a label change. To change the oil it's self..... I would be more in line that the oil companies sell a better oil in a cheap jug then go thru the expense of running a special line of cheap oil. Just like gas. It all comes from the same place. It's just the additives they dump in before it gets to the gas station that makes it Shell, Exxon, etc. I see all the gas station trucks lined up at the same fuel terminal on my ride past daily.
