I've been following all the posts about Mobil 1 lately and found the "New" formulation at WalMart last night. The price of 5 & 10W30 has increased from $4.38 to $4.77 per quart. Not a true synth and costs more now.

Browsing the selection I find that Valvoline offers a blend and a "true synth" at under $4 per quart. I've used Valvoline dino in my cars and bikes for over 20 years and lots of miles so I'm going to switch to their "true" synth for the Volvo.

I'm aware there is some blatant mis-labelling going on but this is my plan at the moment.
