Dollar General got hit with a class action lawsuit recently about some of the oil they sell. They sell some of their Dollar General oil that is marked for older cars. I guess people are buying this for their new cars and that's where the problems begin. Anyway, DG does sell name-brand oil on their shelves, as well as obsolete oil that shouldn't be put in any internal combustion engine. If an oil has an "SN" rating, it's probably a very good oil for your engine. (Unless you need Dexos oil, a way for GM to make more money on oil royalties) If you look at some other no-name oil that DG sells, it should say on the back that it shouldn't be used in modern engines. So why are people buying this oil? I have no idea. It's not fit for an air compressor and it should stay on the shelf. By-the-way, DG occasionally does have good deals on oil. About twice a year they have a BOGO on their "Peak" branded oil where it's under $2/quart. Peak is SN rated and can be used with confidence. Oh, yea. A lot of other dollar stores are also selling obsolete oil. If you are familiar with oil and if you read your owner's manual, you should have no problem knowing what oil can and can not be used in your car. A few class-action lawyers are just trying to earn their keep with their lawsuits.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
