Motor oil prices going up.

I don't know how true it is but my napa guy told me today that engine oil delo and the like will be going up around $4.00 a gallon in 2 weeks. I figured I would throw it out there just in case some of you guys want to stock up. I guess we will see what happens.

Considering oils down to just over $100, 40% lower than it was just about a month ago, consumer oil prices shouldn't really be increasing short term.

Tell your parts guy to get a better sales pitch

I don't think engine oil has kept up with fuel prices. I wouldn't doubt if it is time for adjustment.
