Thoughts?
ExxonMobil recommends a five-year maximum shelf life for engine oils, including Mobil 1™ synthetic motor oil on their website.

Ok, thanks, then I should have no issues since this newest batch will likely get put into the car within the next 12 months...

Just bought 2 cases(12qts) arriving Saturday from that seller, got them at $42.50 per 6pk, so $7.08/qt.
Update- looks like Amazon system is having a "glitch". They are just shipping single quart bottles against the "6 pack" order.

Got my order and it was just 2 quart bottles in a giant box with tons of packing pillows. I assume system thinks that it's shipping 12 quarts but the pick order is for single bottles.

Returning and not gonna order from that particular item again, unless clear Amazon fixed their problem.
