No matter how you slice it an oil change cost more on the diesel. Just because it holds more oil, it is simple math. Why are people even arguing about this? Is it a badge of honor to have a cheap oil change nowadays?

I change mine at 10,000 miles but could go to 15,000 and my oil filter is $5. Your 150 recommends semi-synthetic and mine says dino oil.($36 plus $5 filter every 10,000 miles)No matter how you slice it, my diesel is cheaper than your 150 was. I also get better fuel mileage, haul more, pull more, and mine probably cost less new. Like someone has already said, depends on which diesel.;)

No. The F150 did not recommend synthetic (semi or otherwise) it only says that the oil should meet WSS-M2C929-A. Many dino oils meet that spec, such as PYB Plus it goes on sale often and sometimes includes a free filter. ;)

Okay and your point is? Your F150 still was not cheaper to service.

:R
OK you win. feel better?

Dude it wasn't a competition to me, I just hate when someone that owns one of the most expensive vehicle brands to keep up and maintain gives false info.
