Q: i dont get it. truck is a 2005 fleet version slt 2wd reg. cab w/4.7l v8. i purchased it a few months ago from fastenal. actually their leasing company ge fleet services. first time i had the oil changed the oil change place said it would take 7 qts of oil to fill it. i told them not to. the book says only 6. i then took it to a dealer. they said they must have miss counted because it was a quart low. i took it back to the same place as before. again they said it need 7. theyre not using bulk oil in it. and we counted the bottles kendall gt-1 synthetic blend. i trust the people doing it. ive been getting my oil changed there for years. it needed 7 to fill to the full mark. does this thing have an oversized oil pan the dealer i bought my jeep liberty from says no. they also sell dodge trucks. any ideas ping mike s. ed dowdy fithian il .

was thinking of selling my caravan 1999-has 91000 miles--rear main gasket went out-replaced it $350...was nervous the the tranny might go-- if it would go to 150000 i would keep it. change oil every 3000 miles-runs great... michael .
