Good source for Mobil 1 0W-40?

Did a little reading up on my new car. According to Mercedes documentation, the only multi-grade engine oil approved for AMG engines is Mobil 1 0W-40 (source: MB Specification 229.5).

Anyone know of a good source for this viscosity rating? The stores I normally shop at don't carry it.

I'm in the Air Force and at the Base Exchange (BX) it is about $4/qt, everywhere else I have seen it is closer to $7/qt. You should be able to find it at any franchised auto shop (Kragen, Track Auto)

My Wal-Mart store never carries Mobil 1 0w-40. I get mine from AutoZone for about $6/qt, but one of my boys recommends LubroMoly though. Wonder if anyone has any experience with this brand?
