You live in New York City, the largest metropolis in the country, and you can't find any where that sells oil there?  :P

Yeah, it is pretty good sized. They are the ones that said they had some GS500F's in stock but they were "being sold right and left". w00t!  I ended up getting my GS from Chenago Imports in Utica, if you've ever been up that way.

Think about the percentage of people in NYC that actually own cars.  Now think of the percentage of people that own cars that actually change their own oil.  Now think of how many of those are not mechanics by trade.  That's probably like 3 people.
