Everyone keeps complaining about the price of this stuff...for the record,
it's Autobahn brand, available at the dealer, and is blue in color.  I pay
US $14.80 per GALLON for it, so maybe I should go into business reselling it
since I seem to be the only one who can get it cheap?  Hmmmm.....

Not sure about the liter bottles, tho...

bmc  :)
