The way I see it. I'd rather spend 2 bucks a quart more and be sure my oil meets the MB specs. I get called cheap for buying 8.50 filters off Ebay instead of buying from the "source" here on the forum.. I can live with it just fine though.. LOL The way I see it there's cheap.. Dollar General Econo SynLube.. and then there's just frugal with a few bucks..
