My last Amsoil order was 11/21. Just checked, Amsoil OE 5W20 has gone up a $1.10 per quart. A case, 4-1 gallon jugs went up $15.60.

Welcome to inflation. Still worth it. EVERY oil company has raised prices and oil additives are in shorter supply so boom up go the prices...

I will continue to use Amsoil in our Hyundai Santa FE being it gets used the most, our primary vehicle. The truck sits on a battery maintainer with storage insurance. Hasn't moved in months.

Amsoil was one of the last holdouts on raising prices since they buy railroad cars of additives and base oils at a time. 

 

I have data on price increases of finished lubricants but like everything else computer I can't find it. When I do will share.

Yes we just had a price increase in May.  Hopefully it will be the last one for a while.

 

I remember O.E. when it first came out was right at $4.50 a qt.

An oil and filter change for the Santa FE is now $44.70. 5 quarts Amsoil OE Purolator One filter. The filter went up also. Still worth it IMO.

Wish Amsoil would get their contractor to make the EA oil filter for the 2.7L Turbo. PF 66 works fine but its not like a EA.

Everything went up, I mean really. At least if you’re in a pinch. Change your own oil, make your own coffee, take your lunch. If you already do all that than your ahead of the game.

Got a phone call from my Red Line supplier yesterday giving me a heads up on a 15% increase coming soon. 🥴

The Amsoil OE stuff is like $8.60 a quart at napa and the signature stuff is pushing $12 or 13 depending on the weight. Still cheaper than some of the Castrol and Pennzoil stuff when shopping at napa.

 

I'm just glad I don't pay retail costs on lots of things lol.

My thinking, Amsoil OE is rated for 7500 miles. Purolator One filter 10 K miles. Thinking 4 K mile OCI's. Both rated for higher miles but you know me I like clean oil. Severe duty for the Santa Fe is 3750 miles and our use is severe duty.

 

Customboss UOA on the Amsoil OE at 7500 miles I believe proved it could be run longer.

      Trim level custom/pro

      By Another JR · Posted

      Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable.

      I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.

      Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case." The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik   If you'd like to disagree call your Senator or Representative and let him know his departments are in error. But you and I? We are not doing this.
