Iron & Copper are high for 6500 miles.
Nothing to worry about but worth keeping an eye on in future O.A.

TBN is also at lower limit...but acceptable. I would not go any greater mileage on this brand of oil.
Total mileage?
Brand of Oil?

The engine has 43000 on it and this was the first analysis done.
As for the brand, its whatever the dealer gets in bulk.

If at all possible, I would change the oil yourself if you are able. makes for a nice bonding moment with your truck and allows you to pick the oil filtration etc...

Or at least supply your own oil and filter if you're not up to doing it yourself...

Rip 112, very good idea. Another suggestion is I am using the AMSOIL nanofiber drop in air filter and blackstone commented on my report that they have never seen Silicone levels SO LOW as mine. It only needs to be cleaned once in a while. 5 minute job. Lasts I want to say 100,000 miles.

The Amsoil Nano is good for 4 years or 100K. I had to stop and think of why his TBN was so low with only 6500 miles when my oil was 10.01 at 7K. Then I read his other post to see that it was what ever Dino oil the dealership happens to use.
