You would think, now that the C8 is in its fifth production year that this would no longer be an issue. I know that there haven’t been a large number of them brought into the country but you would think that there were other vehicles specifying this formulation . I think I am now oiled out.
I keep saying to everyone.....just find out who the distributor is for your area and buy it from them. That's where the dealers gets it. They get it for $12 a liter and charge you $26. Then they wonder why they don't sell any?
Yes agree that should work for most. I live 10 minutes from the border so buy from the US. As indicated previously all in cost was $10.50 CAD For SUPERCAR plus i full up my fuel tank for far less than than it costs in Vancouver making the trip even that much more worthwhile.
This. Find a Mobil/Esso bulk distributor. Call them. Buy oil. Save money.
I hear ya . 90 % of Canadians live within 200 miles of the US border. Kinda sucks for the other 10 % of us . As Usual , lol .
I bought 24 quarts from my Esso bulk guy for less than $13 per quart. Not worth driving 12 hours to find civilization south of 49.
No argument here…as I indicated “ if you are able”. I’m 10 minutes away, pay $10.50 no need to find a bulk dealer and pay $13. Many can’t do that I can. Others near me have also done. So moral of the story is find the best deal for you taking into account all the information you have available to you ……or not, up to you
I'm not made of money! I live on a fixed income. Dam it must be nice to throw away money!
LOL... As a small business owner I hear "I'm on a fixed income" all the time. My usual response is "Wow that must be nice knowing how much money you are going to get!" With a small business owner if the phone doesn't ring or no one comes into the office... no one is getting paid! Oh ya ... and no one is going to pay me to leave. Everyone has their limits to cash flow and not everyone can just pay out all the time. It is up to each individual to do within their budget.
Don't fret it. In 10 years everyone will be using Canola oil. $13 for 4 litres at Walmart...
My fixed income will NEVER increase. Well, except for OAS. Yours is likely bargained for etc.
