Best place to buy 5W-40?
Where has everyone bought Mobile 1 (or some other brand) 5W-40? Is there a place in SoCal to get the best price on this oil? Also, what dealer in SoCal do you guys get your oil filters from? TIA

Any reason for Mobil 1, personally I've always used Castrol Syntec 5w 40 for the PCar and Mobil 1 for the M3. I grab it from Advanced Auto Parts.
