Default Mobil 1 0-20W

Anybody else having trouble finding this now? I tried both of my local WallyMarts with no avail, then Pep-Boys and no one carries it anymore... went with 5-20 being its summer but would like to find 0-20 again

I stocked up so much the last time it was "discontinued", I won't be looking for oil for a couple more years. Glad I did as the price has gone up significantly since.

According to the engineers at Mobil Oil, the shelf life is good for 5 yrs.

Been using the new PennzOil 0-20 Synthetic bought from the store JackedUP noted, sure eliminated the witch hunt for the 'other' brands. Now but for the Fumoto Engine Oil Drain Valve....I'm in oil change Heaven.
