Default Brad Penn at Pelican

Pelican Parts just announced that they have Brad Penn on stock, with free shipping in the lower 48. The bad news is that their price for a quart of 20W50 is nearly five dollars more (9.50) than what I just paid at Maryland Performance Center up here in good old Fredneck, Maryland.

10-40 winter, 15-50 or 20-50 rest of year. Most of it leaks out anyway

I order BradPenn from a place online called Bartlube.com.

For 20W50, it's $72.29 a case (12 qts) delivered to my front door. So....$6.02 per qt.

You can actually buy a 55 gallon drum of it for $726.39.
