Am I missing something. Does that not work out to be almost $10 a quart? Still not a bad deal compared to the $15-$16 in these parts.Frank, you are just bad at math. It's simple: $59 / 6qts = just over $6 per quart. Got it now?

Just curious but did you read the thread at the link you posted? Sure the Rotella lost viscosity but what is the norm. or average? In fact some of the other posters said that other 10W-40 weight oils show about the same viscosity after a bit of use in a motorcycle. Also, did you notice the gasoline content in the second sample? That alone will thin any oil regardless of the base weight.
The quality or suitability of Rotella mineral oil to be used in a C-14 aside, that link does not show anything definitive because there is no comparison to other oils. Again, the only way an oil can really be measured is compared with other oils because all oil will pick up contaminates, thin down and lose additives; the only real question is which oil performs better than the average, or better yet, which oil performs best.

American math must be different than Canadian math....$9.83 by my made in China calculator.The math is the same. It's the "just over" part that is different.

Because, after all, there are only three kinds of people in th world. Those who can do math, and those who can't.
The only thing better than an oil thread is a math thread.
