Yeah..good luck getting a quicklube to wait 15 minutes.. or to only put 12 qt's in.. or to fill the filter before installing it... between this info..and Mayfair prodding me to do it myself.. I think I'll be on the lookout for a large shallow oil drain pan within the next 5000 miles.. and one of those easy drain valves from geno's

Oh once you shut off the engine you need to wait 15 minutes or longer for the oil to drain back in to the oil pan to get a correct reading on the dip stick.

I put exactly three gallons in my 6.7L. Seems to be the right amount. I do pre-fill the filter too.
Can't remember who it was (Jakebrake?), but somebody here gave me the idea of using a gallon size Ziploc bag for removing the oil filter. When you're done you just zip it and toss it. Very tidy.
