How much oil in your stash?

Not open for further replies.
6-5 quart jugs of PU 5W30.
5-1 quart bottles of PU 5W30.
1-5 quart jug of AFE 0W30.
5-1 quart bottles of AFE 0W30.
4-1 quart bottles of M1 5W40 TDT.
3-1 quart bottles of Havoline 50 conventional oil.

I'm patiently waiting to see if WMT or AMZN offers a Rollback or special on PU 5W30 again.
 
I took a soujourn through REPCO this morning and Supercheap Auto this afternoon.

I have at my disposal, and only for the transaction costs on the day that I need it...rather than inventory costs, costs of capital, and the compromises of trying to make my stockpile of oil fit my current rides....

Saw some Killer deals on a $/litre basis...nothing that specifically met anything currently in the stable.

Still makes me better off waiting until I need it.

Yes, I still have stock in the shed, of oils that suit the current rides (
But random litres of "cheap" oil mean that the vendor has done exactly what they are trying to do, get my cash into their pocket, and remove their inventory.

Paid around $7.20/quart. Its all about the synerlec lol!
 
Not sure exactly how much at the moment.
I have done a few changes, as well as bought a few qts since last full inventory.

Off the top of my head I know I have:

~5 gallons of Peak 15w-50 (~$0.50/qt).

~25 qts of Castrol Magnatec xw-20 ($0.05/qt)

6 qts Castrol Magnatec 10w-30 (~$0.85/qt)

2 qts Valvoline Conventional 30wt ($0.05/qt)

15 qts Pennzoil Platinum/PPHM 0w-20 (Free, may have paid me after rebates)

10 or 15 qts Valvoline Synpower (5w-20 and 5w-30)(~$1.75/qt)

5 qts Mobil 1 EP 5w-20 ($2/qt)

~8 qts Castrol GTX HM 5w-20 (~$0.25/qt)

2 qts Pennzoil Platinum (Free)

2 qts Autozone Synthetic ($2.65/qt)

Maybe some more?

Here is the most recent pic I have from a few months ago.



15w-40 is for bike.

xw-20's are for my truck (6 qts/change, + 1 qt make up every 1500 miles), wife's car (4 qts), brother in laws truck (7 qts/change + 1 qt make up every 3000 miles) and sisters SUV (5 qts/change + 1 qt top off every 4000 miles)

xw-30 is for my mom's Saturn (5 qts)

I bought the 30wt for my lawnmower, but have since gone to an electric mower (will probably use it as top off oil)

this is a good 3 years worth of oil (if I don't buy any more).
 
I think some of these staches are signs of an illness!

Beats me. An oil change that I feel must be done right now? I mean, I hope I never overlook a change but all it takes is a good family crisis to forget all about other things that aren't quite as important.
 
Last I checked, I was at 32 qts !!!!


All Delo 400XLE 10W-30


Luckily most of my fleet runs 10W-30
