I would like to start doing the oil changes on my truck myself. But before I do I would like to find a source for 5 gallon buckets of Rotella T6. Or any other 5w-40 synthetic for that matter.

Shell says the things do exist, here:
http://www-static.shell.com/static/c...cants/1-52.pdf

with the reference numbers being:
550019866
431-564-42

When I put those in google shopping I get zero results.

I can find T6 in 1 gallon jugs all over the place locally (Kansas City area). Some of them also stock the 15w-40 in 5 gallon buckets, but when I ask if they can get the T6 they say no.

Any ideas?

 

I saw it at Sam's Club not too long ago. I am in the Houston area. Not sure if KC Sam's would have it or not.

 

Thanks. I'll have to check that and Costco too I guess.

 

I live in eastern PA and tractor supply has them

 

Costco usually carries Chevron Delo 15-40

 

I've seen them at Tractor Supply as well as NAPA.

 

I have seen T6 at Walmart in 5 gal. pails , BUT IT CHEAPER IN ONE GALLION JUGS , go figure. For me its easier to pour the gallon jugs anyway !

The local autozone sells it in the five gallon pails.

 

Locally in Knoxville it can be ORDERED from O'Reilly's. Not a stock item though. I run the T5 and was told at O'Reilly's that it's not available in 5 gal.

 

Welp no luck so far. I've tried:

Orschelns
Advance Auto
O'Rielly
Autozone
Wal-Mart
Napa
Sam's Club
Costco
Tractor Supply

Any places that stock T6 only have it in the 1 gallon jugs, and can't order the 5 gallon. From what I've seen they usually don't have more than two on the shelf at any one time, so I guess I'll have to stockpile it over time.
