Where to get Mobil 1 in SoCal?

Back in Chicago, I used to be able to pick up Mobil 1 5W40/0W40 at local pep-boys or walmart... where do I get it in SoCal? Went to a few places, and nobody had it. Happen to drive by Speed Gallery on the way home, and even though they were closed, somebody was working in the garage, and just gave me a bottle... what great guys!

Good luck. I had the same issue trying to get 0W40 for my dad's Mercedes ML. Finally had to go to the MBZ dealer & they had it. I did get 0W30 (which they said was fine) over at the Napa Autoparts over on San Fernando Rd. in Glendale.

Autozone, Costco, and Pep Boys in Burbank did not have it.

When I called Kragen a couple days ago, and they said the didn't... went back today to double check, and they did. They've got a sale for $3.99 good til 18th, iirc. Just ask for the disc at the counter, no need to clip coupon. They had it in the back.
