Now that we know where to get the good oil at a good price I need to change the transmission fluid in Huggy  She has v730.


What is the new stuff that is supposed to be good and where can i get it without breaking my bank account.

Glad I read this forum. Was going to offer "Straight 40 Rotella at Tractor Supply". My 90 year old father in law and the 2 surviving members of his FMCA group of long ago with 4104, 4106, Scenic cruisers, Flxibles, all tell me " Rotella straight 40 is top drawer, the cat's wiskers, use nothing else...". So that is what I have used for my 2 oil changes so far. It works, but always willing to switch to something better! Who knew....until you read this forum.

Judging from the photo - new oil stored in the pit, - I like variety! The fact of the matter is I buy it when it's on sale... The current oil in the bus crankcase is over a year old with less than 500 miles on it parked/stored in air conditioned space. I plan to get put more miles on it - comments?
