6-Quart Box of Oil

[Bluesky 07]

Hadn't seen boxed oil before the other day. Ended up buying it for several reasons:

- Box packaging eliminates most of the plastic
- Having 6 quarts vs. 5 is more convenient given my '07 V6 takes 5.5 qts.
- Very economical at $15.47 for 6 quarts
- Comfortable with the quality (I believe that differences in various oils are so minimal as to be essentially insignificant as long as the oil meets manufacturers' specifications.)

The only apprehension I have is that the oil is in a plastic bag in the box and I'm not sure how well pouring it will go (though it claims to be "glug free"). I'll follow up here once I do my next change.

This worked great, to the point I'm comfortable saying it's the smoothest pouring oil I've ever used. Not a glug, pause, splash, anything.

The box has a tear-out panel so you can see how much is left, useful since a 4th Gen V6 only uses 5.5 of the 6 quarts. (There's more than .5 quarts in it here, this was taken before I finished.)

Nice...it would be perfect for my 1.5Gen Sorento, but us 4th Gen V8 owners would still need to by an extra quart.

Such a sane, refreshing statement! :bluejump:

No, we must start another discussion on which oil types and brands are best - LOL!

Agreed, because two microns less wear over 15 years of ownership is worth paying $10 more per oil change! (Well, it probably is to some and more power to them, but not me.)

Ordered 2 boxes of this in 0W-20. 12 quarts delivered for just over $41. Nice deal!
