I've had my truck since it rolled off the line, only 3 miles on it.
It has almost 250,000 miles on it, with regular oil changes.
Every time, it's taken 6 quarts of oil with each change... Until this last time
This place claims it only needs 5 1/2 quarts.

Just for peace of mind, how much does that 1/2 quart matter?
 
5.5qts gets the level midway between the marks, I use 6qts and it fills to top mark. Have the trans cooler and use the larger filter.
I like having more than the minimum amount.

I've never had a place short me a 1/2 quart before... Annoying. The place has good reviews, but if they're skimping on something simple... What else are they doing?
 
2.7l 4 cylinder manual says 6.1 qt. but this will bring the oil level above the full mark on the dip stick, using 5.5 qts. it will be at the full mark on the dip stick
