I just went to buy my drive lube, got a quart of High Performance Quicksilver, brought it home & found it doesn't mix with my last bottle of Quicksilver Premium Gear Lube. How exasperating. Why don't they just sell 36 ounces, which is what the Alpha holds.

Sheesh.


OK, rant over.

Re: May I complain

Sure, you can complain, but the High Performance and Premium Gear lube are two completely different types of gear lube.
They shouldn't be mixed.

Why don't they just sell 36 ounces, which is what the Alpha holds.
Just by 2 quarts, and save the rest for next time and then buy only 1 quart.

Ok, another edit. If you think it's expensive now, how much more expensive do you think it would be if they had to make a special bottle to hold 36 oz. Then you would have more complaints because someone spilled 1 or 2 ounces and want slightly more..... Just in case, the you have people complaining about having 2 ounces to much and they are paying for more than they need.
It's just impossible to please everyone.

IIRC, they make smaller containers. I think 10 ounces. So get a quart and the 10 ouncer, and you'll have enough left over for topping up. If you don't use it up, use it next change and you'll only need to buy one quart.

Sorry to be a knucklehead, I know I should have read the dang thing before I went to the store. Oh well, live & learn.
