Where did Rotella Gas Truck Oil go?

Don't blame the manufacturer.

Gas and oil have been in short supply because of "you-know-who". And it ain't Covid.

I'm all for blaming the current ******-in-chief for everything but in this case, it's a Shell issue. There's plenty of issues out there but THIS particular issue is a Shell problem. I heard about the developing problem early this year so stocked up. I even used the Shell rebate so got the T6 super cheap. My last 2.5 gallon jug I bought was more expensive because I have gotten the max rebate I can on 2.5 gallon jugs.

The NAPA Wholesaler flyer has the Rotella gas engine oil @$4.49/qt until 12-31-21.
Plenty of inventory at our nearest warehouses.

I did check my local NAPA store and they do have a fair amount of various types of Rotella oils in stock. If you need it and you have access to it, better get it. It's pretty expensive at my local NAPA though. $46.50 per 5 qt jug while Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil is $29.00 per 5 qt. I'll stick with Rotella T6 for my engines that use it.

You obviously know nothing about the gas and oil business.

Local Walmarts have been out of Rotella for awhile.

I just bought 3 gallons of Rotella T6 at Walmart and they had plenty in stock.
