I'm used to $3-5/quart, and I'm not the only one that thinks the Honey is overpriced.




Why are you tired of it? Because it's true? You buy a 23k SVT and can't part with $45 every 4 years for a fluid change. With an estimated average yearly mileage of 12k. What is that $11.50 a year that breaks down to? Do you use synthetic Mobil 1 in your SVT like most on here do? (Probably run the $1 a qt stuff from the corner store huh?) If you do it yourself it's about $25-30 an oil change every oil change every 5k? Makes the trans fluid sound like a bargain eh and your logic wack now doesn't it? Should have bought a Yugo.
