Mobile Delvac - available in DC area?

Can anyone tell me whether Mobile's diesel synthetic oil is available anywhere in the Washington, DC area? Or, even if it is purchased over the internet or at a CAT dealer, how much gallon jugs cost? I have located a shop that sells Amsoil diesel oil by the quart, but at $9 each I'm wondering if Delvac is cheaper.

Thanks,

GregS

GregS,

I have never found Mobil Delvac 1 at Walmarts. I get mine from the MB dealer and order it when he orders his Mobil Oil supply (he seems to order every week). But I used to buy it from a Mobil Oil distributor. I think I got the name on the web through Mobil 1's web site. Good Luck, Jim

I have not seen Mobil Delvac 1 at the stores, but I just purchased 2 cases and had it delivered to my home in Maryland for $180. A case is 4 gallons. This works out to $5.63 per quart or $22.50 per gallon. I purchased from http://avlube.com/automotive.htm
