Same here. Not only is it a high quality grease, but you can easily see when that bright red grease has pushed all of the old grease out of the wheel bearings when repacking.

Lucas Red and Tacky.

I watched a YouTube video testing various greases. Lucas came out best in every test.

I've always used Lucas Red and Tacky. I carry a tub and small grease gun of it in the RV all the time as well.

I used to use Lucas Red n' Tacky but hated the fact that any left over grease in the cartridge would separate and leak out of the gun. Switched to Mystik JT-6 and no more separation. BTW, it is also red.
