I bet anyone stumbling on this site will be flabbergasted to find anyone has an "oil stash," LOL.
But yeah, I am stocking up on Pennzoil Ultra 5W30 while I still can. I currently have 3 5QT jugs and 1 QT jug, but I'll be getting 2 more of the former and a 6 QT case of the latter within the next few weeks. It's a few years' worth of oil changes, but it's worth it to me because it's getting harder to find and I am going to be starting my own business at the first of the year, and I won't have as much disposable income to pay premium prices for it if folks don't start stocking it. This way, I get oil changes to roughly 40,000 miles for $21 per (price for the dealership to do the work and provide the filter). That should last me 3-4 years or so.
The 6 QT case will give me some extra to top off with in addition to rounding out the extra 3/4 quart above 5 quarts for each oil change.

55 gallons isn't really all that much when your oil changes take 10 gallons each.

55 gallons isn't really all that much when your oil changes take 10 gallons each.
How true that is! Yeah, it just looks impressive from a volume standpoint, but when you have the perspective of how it is used, the dynamics change. And that's right... at 10 gallons an oil change, 55 gallons is like someone else having a couple of cases of oil for their pickup.

I have maybe eight quarts of SM M1 0W-40 that will be used for spring time oil changes(mixed with M1 EP 5W-20 I'm yet to buy)... Also around 10 quarts of 10W-40 QS Defy for the older stuff and I think four gal of Rotella 10W-30 for the ones I beat on...
There are no doubt a odd quart, or two, or three etc in the garage as well, I don't keep up with actual numbers...

The other thing that I do on a regular basis is "share" my good fortune with others so there are some donations that happen from my stash as well.
Well said 2010_FX4!! My thoughts exactly. Although I still currently have over 250 quarts of various brands, I have donated well over 100 quarts as well. And I too was bitten by the BITOG bug just a couple of years ago (2011)! I can only imagine what my garage would look like if I had caught it years earlier.
