That looks amazing. I’m happy for you all that you’re getting close to the end.
 
BTW, just a heads up for fellow CPK’ers.

Sooo… the fun and festivities in the Middle East has resulted in ~70% of the world’s production of Grp III synthetic oils going offline (and it’s unknown when they’ll be back online. One of the Pearl Group lines may take up to a year).

Especially for folks doing their own oil changes, who have the ability to stack and store motor oil, you might want to consider getting some before prices go up.

A big US distributor has already mentioned that Grp IIIs have spiked 45%, and as formulators begin taking the hit, it will pass down to the consumer/retail level (and no idea if there may be scarcity/shortages later in the year. It depends on how badly the facilities have been damaged, and how long it takes to get them back online).
