Considering oil has been in the ground a few million years!

Are you asking if "BMW Branded" oil has a different shelf life than Mobil 1???

Pardon my frivolity, but really... that's like asking if Meadow Gold milk lasts longer than Dean's Farms milk.

Ask your gf or wife what she prefers...

I guess Bill K's post was something he shouldn't have asked?
Bill, if you can edit your post and ask... if Meadow Gold milk lasts longer than Dean's Farms milk, Penguin needs to know its almost bed time for him.
