Slightly cheaper Delvac?

[Cubey]

Has anyone else spotted this? It's a couple bucks cheaper per gallon than "Delvac 1300 Super". I wonder what that's about. All photos were in the same store, so I know it's not a replacement for 1300.

Oh, I think I figured it out.

1300 Super is a synth blend, even though they don't advertise it on the front label. The website says it's a blend:

Mobil Delvac™ 1300 Super 15W-40 diesel oil | Mobil Delvac™ Engine Oils

The cheaper HDEO looks to be purely conventional:

All I can say is, never find yourself in spot where you have to spend 27 bucks for a gallon of rotella at advance auto. I hate that store

I tend to carry at least a gallon or two extra oil with me. I buy it either on sale at TSC or just get the cheapest SuperTech from Walmart. I have a 2gal jug of SuperTech I got months ago for topping off/next oil change.

Advance can have good deals if you buy online for in store pickup, or they did a few years ago anyway. They had the Holley Red pump was cheaper than anywhere else with a promo code. I think Holley products are excluded now though.

I get the 2.5 gal of high mileage oil at TSC for $33, a lot more often than I like to mention. My engine is getting tired and is starting to drink oil, the rebuild is coming!

I have never seen any high mileage 15w40 except in MaxLife, and that seems to have gone away.

The 2 gallon SuperTech jugs are still fairly cheap, $24. Although, I paid $20.50 back in November.

They have it in the "Traveler" brand at my TSC.

They don't list it at all online. Odd.

Just regular stuff:

You're right! I just went and looked, for some reason I had "high mileage" in my poor little brain, but it says "heavy duty". I stand corrected.

No problem. But yeah this was the only one I've ever seen. Walmart sold it but not anymore.
