[QUOTE="SCGallo2, post: 16510210, member: 160791"] I am sure that I am in the minority, but I only pour in 6 quarts during my annual oil changes in my 2008, which puts the oil level about ½ way up the safe zone (stock dipstick and oil pan). 6.5 quarts goes to the top of the safe zone, and that is the most I would ever pour in. I average about 5,000 miles per year, and my engine does not burn a drop of oil… I just lose an ounce or two to the passenger side oil separator. I have a theory that Ford is a little nervous about engine oil levels and oil consumption between service intervals due to some early GT350s and 2018-20 Coyote F150s. Brand new, my 2018 F150 5.0L drank 1 quart of oil every 2,000 miles. Two or three TSBs later, oil consumption is reduced to 1 quart of oil every 5,000 miles, which I am satisfied with for now, but it is still B.S. [ATTACH=full]1668445[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
