Where do you get your oil?
As we all know the RX-8 drinks oil. I'm tired of stopping to pick up a quart. I started buying the 5 quart jug at Wal Mart. I much prefer the 1 quart bottle. Anyone have a suggestion on where I can buy cases at reasonable prices? I'm just wondering what everyone else does.

Mine sips oil, rather sparingly. At most a quart between changes. Not enough to worry about. I'm considering taking the spare bottle out of the trunk, since I doubt I'll ever really need to top off away from my garage.
Nearest discount parts place is Advance Auto Parts. With three cars in the family, I just keep an eye on their flyer and pick up a case of whatever I'm low on when it's on sale.

its never a bad idea to keep oil in the car anyways, you never know.
i took a milk crate and used the straps that held in my inflation kit to strap thru the grates of the crate to keep it in place... i put all my spare junk and oil in the crate so its not flying around the trunk.

The place that changes my oil, gives me free fluid fill ups anytime I need them, and they're on my way to school every day, so if Im low, I get mine filled up there for free.
