They are 5qt+ jugs, thus assuring a complete fill. Wal*mart caries the "Wal*mart special" 5qt exact jugs.

Hmmmmmm,makes me wanna head over there to check em out! I`ve always only seen the 4qt ones.
The only time I find autozone's prices beat Walmart's is when they have special deals like a jug of Mobil 1 and filter for $30 (or 5 quarts and filter for $35). Otherwise I find autozone to be more expensive as far as jugs of oil goes.
Seems like I have purchased 5 qt. jugs of Exxon motor oil at AZ in the past.
Why 5.3 quarts?
Most cars take 5 quarts, some 5.5..
Sounds like a good way to overfill the motor, even by a little bit, it doesn't make sense to me.

Because they are 5-liter jugs.
My local AZ has both 5qt and 5L jugs for the same price. They have double of every jug.

I see so many posters on BITOG claim that Wal-Mart is the only place to get a 5 qt container. In my collection I have an engine oil container from the late 20s-early 30s that was sold in a 5 qt. metal container. This was a regional oil company that was famous (somewhat) in the midwest but is long out of existance. This can was made before anybody ever dreamed about WM. WM was not the inventer of the 5 qt can.
