Ya, isn't that interesting?  I find the gallons convenient, but they still cost 
more to buy than the quarts!  Darn packaging.  You really don't start to see 
any savings over quarts until you get into 55 gallon quantities.  All the sales 
and promotions are on quarts.  Even with businesses that buy wholesale (at 
least for me).  A real PITA when you change a service truck out - that takes 7 
gallons of engine oil.

I did a quick search and what I saw is that buying a 5 gallon bucket of
motor oil will be about $30 more expensive than buying 5 gallons worth of
whatever oil oreillys has on sale.

Thanks for the input,
Luke
