    I’ve used it for 5 years. They deliver to my house, and I use their in-house sample service.

    It’s probably little difference to other oils.

    I've heard a very good story about the motor oil in a car, but I only used the grease, which is very good.

    I buy very little grease anymore. Company supplies and lease company does pm, too much isn't good, either, when it's cold so long in the winter. Note that I like the Lucas pour on better than those asphalt laced sprays.

    I used 3 of them. The problem is the metal collar gets bent out of shape. Then the disc falls off when I would drop the trailer at the mechanics yard. I would forget to look before I hitched back up.
    I read they have a model that can be bolted on the trailer or fifth wheel plate.
    I like the way it worked.
