what is the best oil that i should use in this truck. using penzoil 10w-30 now. thanks srf.


There were plenty of threads about the oil consumption here.

1Qt per 3000 miles sounds normal for this engine. Just check the oil level often.

I personally use 0W-40 Mobil1 to control the consumption. Others report that Rotella heavy-duty (or synthetic) is the best oil in terms of consumption. But in your situation there is nothing to worry about if you keep the level between the marks.
