If you are going to do an oil change, you would need to buy 2 gallons jugs of oil because many buy oil that way rather than buy individual quarts.
I believe its actually close to seven quarts needed. The D24T oil pan has a large reservoir where the oil pump pick-up is.
There are other cars out there that use much bigger oil pans than that.
Actually I like to keep the oil level about 1/4" above the full mark in winter as the engine rattles less on startup (probably piston slap is reduced).
