I just looked at the Amsoil website. Really who needs a 275 gal tote of oil? If you were wondering what a tote of oil is:

The dealerships that I have worked with or known all use either qt bottles or 5 gallon tubs. I dunno, maybe a truck repair shop or a factory?

I could see someone (factory/plant) with large motors needing it, actual motors, not engines. We had huge tubs of oil for the nuke plant motors.

I wonder if I can get 5 gallon cans with a manual pump that has a meter on it. No more measuring oil!

Quart, gallon, or 30 gallon, 55 gallon, or 275 gallon tote are the options for oil... sorry.

Hmm, 30 gallons might be a little excessive.
