Oil Capacity of 4.8 engine 2006

[mountainbiker]

Just got this new 2006 K1500 with the small 4.8 v8 engine, How much oil does this thing hold, 5 quarts? Also, is there any website that has all the "capacities" on it, oil, gas tank, water, etc. The dealer salesman could answer these quesctions, thanks for any and all replys.
