The 2014 model has several engine options, so you’ll want to know how much oil your vehicle requires before making an oil change.

2014 Ford F 150 Oil Change Interval

The interval for an oil change depends on how much you drive and how hard you drive.

  1. If you commute fewer than 1,000 miles per month, then change the oil every 7,500 miles or five months.
  2. If you commute between 1,000 and 2,000 miles per month, then change the oil every 5,000 miles or three months.
  3. If you commute more than 2,000 miles per month (or don’t know), then change it more often; consult your dealer for exact recommendations for your particular car model/make/model year

2014 F150 Oil Change Cost

To find out, you can look in the owner’s manual for your truck. The manual will usually list what type and amount of oil that should be used for your vehicle. You also may be able to see this information on a sticker on the side of your engine block (this is more common).

  • The 3.7 liter V6 will cost about $120 for the full change.
  • The 5.0L V8 engine will cost around $150 for the full change.
  • The 6.2L V8 will cost around $170 for the full change at most auto parts stores.

Can You Save Money on Oil Changes?

If you’re going to change your own oil, it’s important to have the right tools and equipment. You’ll need a good quality oil filter wrench and some kind of drain pan or bucket. It does have to be fancy; even a large plastic bowl will do the trick.

How much money can changing your own oil save? The answer depends on how often you do it and whether or not someone else does it for you professionally. For most people with standard vehicles like F150 trucks, it usually works out somewhere between $20-$40 per year.

This is dependent on how often you service your vehicle’s engine with fresh motor oil instead of having someone else do it for you professionally every few thousand miles or so. Ideally, you should check your oil level every time you fill up with fuel. The best way to do this is with a dipstick, which is included in your vehicle’s owner’s manual.

Conclusion

The Ford F150 uses different amounts of oil based on the engine. If you own one of these trucks, it’s important to keep track of how much oil you use so you dont run out and have problems with your vehicle. You should be able to find a list of recommended oil type and weight in your manual as well.
