FAIRFAX, Va. - Exxon Mobil Corp. converted more than 65 independent quick lube businesses to the Mobil 1 Lube Express brand in 2004, bringing the total number of locations to 141 since the brand's inception in 2003, the company reported

“We're enjoying tremendous success with the Mobil 1 Lube Express program," said Patti Rose, Mobil 1 Lube Express marketing coordinator, ExxonMobil Lubricants & Specialties.
