Sitting in my truck getting an oil change at a fast lube Mobil Oil. It made me realize how far we have come.
Oil cans were introduced in the 30s so we actually knew whose oil and what type of oil we were getting.
I asked for full synthetic oil which is at a premium price and thought am I really getting what I pay for.
As no i didn't get out and follow the line to a bulk tub somewhere and see what the label says.
As i suppose it could be refilled with whatever oil they please anyway.
I guess some have quarts and you could ask specifically for that but its likely more money than BULK
and it seems the world is concerned with plastic straws, I best not contribute 6 plastic oil containers to the dumpster.


Wanted early tin litho signage.
petro, farm, auto, etc.
