How much oil do L's take??

Need to change the oil on my L soon. The dealer took out my owners manual and I just ordered a new one, so I can't refer to it for the answer to this question. How many quarts of oil do these things take??

The manual does say 6 quarts, but after I lowered the rear by 2" that doesn't quite fill it up. Now it takes 6 1/2.
