Key Takeaway 1

So I'm sitting here Friday afternoon, catching up on the industry news, and I run into a Wall Street Journal piece that made me put my coffee down. And here's the thing, it wasn't the inflation angle that got me. It was the second sentence.

Key Takeaway 2

Stellantis, that's the parent company of Jeep and Ram, quietly switched the bulk oil in its dealer service departments. They went from zero W twenty to five W twenty on some of their V six and V eight engines. Not a recall. Not a new model year thing. A supply move.

Key Takeaway 3

Look, when an automaker changes the oil recipe at the dealer level, that's not a footnote. That ripples through everybody downstream. Us, the fleets, the parts guys, the customer standing in the driveway asking why their service interval just changed. So I started digging.
