    that blows, dude, but I guess now you get to grab that 6.0? Or 6.2? I thought that you had planned on getting one or the other when the 4.8 let go

    Hey Mark---most people put the drain plug back in after you change the oil...

    5.5 gallons? Really? 22 quarts of oil... Wowsers. Did you add oil depending on oil pressure, or the oil level sensor warning on the info center on the dash?

    I was just adding it based on oil pressure and checking the dip stick every 100 miles or so. Yeah it was really 5.5gal.s i bought 3 1gal. jugs of rotella at the truck stop then had 10 quarts of Valvoline 50w race oil.... no racing going on haha
