When oil life drops below 30% but use PUP so large safety margin.
Ultra is only for long OCI's. Are you getting 7500+ miles on your monitor?

When OLS says 20%-30%, somewhere in there.

Last time it was only at %50 tho.

Ya, I learned that when we go to the Ford dealership no matter the state of the oil they are gonna still change it and charge for us, right now they are charging $130 for just the oil change in the Dallas area.

I changed it in March 22 at Valvoline and they suggested to change in Aug or after 3k miles

That's completely illegal.

You can tell them to F-off, you're not paying for it.

Any Mobil 1, Penn Plat/Ult, whatever type oil can go way longer. That being said, The oil does a lot on the Coyote and I do drive it hard from time to time. I feel save 7500 or less unless I boosted it or tracked it. Daily driving, 7500 is fine. To be honest 10k prob is, but I'd prefer to change early.

What's that?
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Not proven a better oil over PP, just longer OCI's. So instead of let's say 7500 miles, it can go 10-12K miles.
