[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1893204, member: 35543"] 10k is the absolute maximum; if you’re idling 10 hours a day it falls under special/severe operating conditions, which is nowhere near a 10k service interval. The Owners Manual specifies mileage intervals instead of oil life in some of those cases. The oil dipstick is easily accessible and easy read. There is no need for the transmission fluid level to be checked periodically; they don’t consume fluid during operation. Yes…that’s exactly what should be done. Don’t just run it out of oil and hope somebody else pays for an engine. Most manufacturers won’t. 1qt/1000 miles is out of spec; at that point the root cause of the excessive consumption needs to be diagnosed. OP bought the truck used, who knows how it was driven/used for the first 30k miles. These types of threads seem to follow a common theme. [/QUOTE]
