0 CV7132005 Posted November 16, 2020 Author Share Posted November 16, 2020 Its using about a gallon per week plus or minus. mostly my weeks consist of around 1300 miles. I've always changed the oil at 300 hours 5500 miles Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/64931-oil-consumption/#findComment-463901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
