Every single dealership is in business for profit. Money is their sole motivation. The Parts and Service department is where they make a huge amount of their profit.

I understand the "use what's in the gun" thing and making a profit. It's what all the big shops do. It's a tale as old as time, but we're not using 5W30 here. This is a fairly specific oil at 0-20, so that's why I question the "big drum in the back" theory. It may be true, but I'd be curious to know who makes the drums, if so.
