Just about every walmart store in the midwest caries VR1 in 10/30 & other weights... the 5qt jug is the best value for it @ $5.39/qt vs almost $10/qt individually.

100% honestly I go out of my way to avoid giving Walmart money, but they are ussually the only ones that have the Mobil 1 15-50 with the race flags on it that I like for the Firebird. So I believe they would have the vr1 too.

And I’m in the Midwest. I’ve never seen the 10-30 vr1 regularly on shelves. I was just in RK yesterday. They had the 20-50 but not 10-30.

That said, it’s not like I look for it regularly. So it could just be a small sample size issue. I use synthetic in the Firebird, and I care so little about the olds 455 in the wagon I would put vegetable oil from my kitchen in it.

Default VR1 10w-30

Honestly Amazon is where I usually get it from.
30-35 for a jug delivered.
I do support local Napa for filters and such since
I can get Baldwin thru them.
