When ever you are in doubt, put in about 3 quarts, then check the dip stick, and add 1/2 quart at a time until it reaches the full mark. Also, the quanities for all the systems can be found in the following books:
Owners manual
Haynes manual
Factory service manual.

If you are just changing your oil as regular using the drain plug on the oil pan... you will probably only need to use 4-4.5quarts of oil...
I hope you were joking... for the love your seals...

4.5 here also.
Im wondering, would it be beneficial to drain the oil cooler as well when draining the oil pan? This way, it gets most all the dirtly oil out?

The easiest way to check how much you truly need is to drain, take off filter, start the engine momentarily, then do that until it wont start anymore, then fill her up. A guy at our shop put 16 gallons in our drill rig, that only holds 4 gallons, when he realized he hadn't put the drain plug back in. So see, It could take a lot more than anyone realizes. Remember the SPILL factor.
