Mobil 1 at walmart is $24.00 for 5 quarts, throw in bottle of ZDDP for $10.00 plus $5.00 shipping, plus the tax on original $24.00 ($1.75) and we are at $8.00 per quart. I can get Brad Penn deliverd to my house after tax title and License for $5.05 per quart 1500 PPM zinc and phosphorous and is semi synthetic. Mobil 1 does not come in 15W40. So to answer you question I save 8*3 = $24 per oil change with the brad penn and have all the additives.

Why not just go to Walmart and get your favorite viscosity of Mobil1 (or whatever) for $4.50 per quart and add to it the ZDDP additive from Redline or whomever for $12.00?
