Sorry. Off-topic.
And where are you getting Amsoil at that price, good sir? I bought my 6 quarts for 68$, and they wanted 17$ for the Ea filter but I use M1...

After joining as a preferred customer (I think it's $10/6 months), the prices drop enough that the membership pays for itself on the first order. In addition to oil and filters for the Stang, I also order oils for other applications (marine, yard equipment). If I recall, the 4 qt jug of their 0W20 cost $27.60, the quarts are $7 and the filter is $13.15. That totals $54.75 (my previous estimate forgot that the jug was 4 qts compared to the other brand jugs which are often 5 qts) plus the shipping which typically includes a bunch of other oils so it spreads the shipping cost out a bit.

Nuke.....you need to be getting on the ground and changing that oil yourself.

Do I have to teach you everything?
