Op if u r asking because when u put a certain amount the dipstick still shows low, I've noticed the same. The consensus seems to be 6-6.5 qts. It seems the dipsticks r off on these trucks. 6 qts shows a quart low on my stick. I usually put half a quart in the filter and 6 in the truck. Some do 5.5 in the truck and the other half in the filter.
