Can't find mobil1 5w-20 anywhere!!

So, I've been looking all over town ( I live in Austin, Texas) and all over the internet, and I can't seem to find Mobil1 5w-20 anywhere! It does exist, right? I just don't understand it. If you look on Mobil's website, there's a picture of the bottle right there. Am I just not looking in the right places? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Matt

Get 0W-20, you'll be better off with it anyway. Plus, you can get that at Autozone, O'Reilly's, Vans, Pep Boys... just about anywhere...

i cant find the mobil 1 5w-20 either, im in norcal.

maybe it depends on location? some states may favor thicker oils while some favor the thinner.

if your real desperate, you can call mobil 1 themselves and find a dealer of theres or hopefully find out thru there website

the manual and the oil cap clearly states that 5w20 is recommended
