Great price for smaller quantities. FYI, Walmart Canada sells T4 @ $74 for a 20L pail which comes to $3.70 a litre. This is where I usually get my oil and my preference since each engine takes exactly 5g.

Strange how all oil, gas, diesel and petroleum by products are so much cheaper in the US however Rotella is cheaper in Canada. Could never figure that one out. As mentioned above, a 5g pail of Rotella T4 15W40 at Walmart Canada everyday price goes for $55 US. Canadian Tire is slightly more @ $58 US.

Ok, seeing as how we are down the rabbit hole now and it is snowing again. :cry: ....how come in the US a litre of oil is measured at 1000ml,( as in 1 gal oil= 3.78 litres ) but in Canada when we buy a litre , it is 946 ml, which is the size of the US quart......So are the containers marked 5 litres really 5000 ml or are they 4731 ml.......so what do you think folks...effective marketing or ??????... :beergood: :popcorn:
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.
