Its not that WalMart goes with the lowest bidder, WalMart can purchase so much stuff and have it made private label so they get it cheaper. It could have easily been Havoline, or Valvoline in a different bottle and you guys would call it crap just because it is the WalMart brand.

For the longest time Advance Auto's brand of oil was Havoline, but some people would not use it because it was not "name-brand."
