Elderly motor oil

I have a couple of cases (6 gal) of Delo 400 motor oil for the coach.
They are probably 2 years old and I don't see using them until at least Sept.
I have hated to carry them all summer but I will probably this year.

Does motor oil age out?
How old is still good?

thanks

Still good, too expensive to throw away.

X2.  As long as the containers are still factory sealed, I'd use it and never look back.  No "best if used by..." date on oil that I've ever seen.

If in doubt, shake it up before using, so all the dissolved dinosaur bones get evenly distributed.
