Default Valvoline put high mileage oil in brand new truck
Just got 2nd oil change, dealership did first, I told valvoline I just want synthetic blend 5w20. Sticker says they put in maxlife API SN. Is high mileage going to hurt my truck? 11000 miles 2016 f150 3.5 non eco

Come on guys in being for real, I know it will be fine, but I don't want it to hurt anything. It's my first brand new truck.

The oil they put in your truck meets fords spec for their N/A engines as per Valvoline's website. You don't have to keep using it if you don't want to. As long as it meets fords spec your fine.

Nope. Go back to motercraft oil and filter. Did valvoline have a reason for using high mileage oil?
