Top yours off when you want. That is your decision. Different engines can have different markings and recomendations. The LT1 in my boat for instance the dipstick has 8 oz. Markings for a 1.5 qt range(7 dimples 1/4" apart) and 5qt sump it uses 20w-50 race oil and I keep it between the top two marks and change the oil every season or 50 running hrs. My truck has the 1 liter crosshatch and it depends on how soon I am going to be changing the oil how far down the crosshatch I would let it get before adding some. I haven't needed to add oil to my current truck as I haven't seen it below the top quarter of the crosshatch within 4000 mile oil changes. I had a 2002 5.3l that I added a full quart to every 2000-2500 miles that I drove until I sold it with 275,000 miles on it and a 4.8l that I never had to add oil to between changes that I drove until it had 300,000 miles. Every engine and use case is different. I'm sorry the owners manual is somewhat ambiguous I didn't write it. -
Chevy still? Dealer can add the factory remote start if so. 85768274 if the truck does not have the power release tailgate, or 85773997 if it has the power release tailgate. Gets you access to use it with the MyChevy app if you have onstar on that new truck as well. -

Then we agree on the range between marks is 1 quart (for most light duty trucks and cars). Great! Whew! I will push back on the ambiguous every time. I can see some cherry looking at the dipstick before a long haul and seeing the level just above the lower mark closing the hood and not giving it a second thought until the next stop or the I-D-10-T error light flashes and parts leave the confines of the engine bay. How about it Chris, do we top up when we see it at a quarter quart low?, A half quart below full or wait until it doesn't register on the stick? 🤔 That's where asilerblazer is heading and to me, it read like he wouldn't mind taking a few reads with him. -
Time will tell. I gave them a go ahead. They're going swap out the chrome bumbers for the black ones for me. I'm pretty sure, sooner or later I'll regret compromising on the 2 spd transfer case, but I'm getting old and want a new truck and this is where I am. Losing the power seat and remote start too compared to my current truck. Not too worried about the seat, and it looks like I can add the remote start aftermarket from Compustar for $420 or so depending on level.
