Ford F 150 EcoBoost owners. Oil changes?

Full synthetic change every 8k or so

Pretty sure you can change the intervals on your display

Don't think that's possible.

Maybe I just reset mine idk

I'm full synthetic and go 5k with the same truck you have. That is what my dealer recommends.

I change mine every 5k at the dealership with Motorcraft synthetic blend. I tow my boat alot so do every 5k but the meter says 50%. My cousin has a f150 and changes it when light comes on so thats about 10k and hasn't had any issues.

I believe the meters are set for 8-10k. Full synthetic. You can change the meter yourself to remind you, if you prefer to get more frequent oil changes. Use your steering wheel buttons to access the display on the instrument cluster.

If you get your oil changed at a dealership, they will set it back to 100%, so you will have to change it to 80% or whatever you prefer after you get the oil change.

I generally follow the oil life gauge- last time I was at the dealership, my tech said something about changing in more frequently with the hot temps during the summer, but I just figured he was upselling me.

This.

My dad owns an oil change shop, I don't know the exact specs/recommendations of the oil manufacturers, but he usually says 7500 miles max, that fact that it has turbos and most who post on this board live in very hot climates I would go conservative (Granted, getting my oil changed is probably less of a big deal than most)

I change between 3k and 5k depending on where and how it's been driven. I use full synthetic oil.

What's the point in changing synthetic that frequently? Do you tow in hilly terrain 90% of the time?
