I want my next oil change to sound like this!

BUT charge me regular price—I don’t want to pay for that whole crew!

AND (if you ever get around to actually opening the hood and getting at the engine), use a PIG® Form-A-Funnel® Flexible Draining Tool so no oil drips onto my car frame and from there onto my driveway.

Still … nice job, guys!

P.S. All the Form-A-Funnel® info you need is here.

See? Genuine PIG® Mat.

The reason I’m emphasizing genuine is that there are times when I’m in a store and I see a new product with a brand that I know from somewhere else. For instance, I’ve known about California Pizza Kitchen restaurants, and recently I saw this frozen pizza (which I haven’t tried yet):

Doesn’t that look great? But I can’t help thinking, is that the genuine stuff from California Pizza Kitchen? The same as I would get in California?

Someone who sees a PIG® display in a NAPA store may wonder: Is that genuine PIG® Mat?

Yes! This is the very same PIG® Mat that we offer online and in our catalogs. Have no doubts! It’s made right here at One Pork Avenue.

So many NAPA customers are telling us how happy they are they can now find the PIG® brand through NAPA. Some people just prefer to buy locally. We aim to please!
