Default Anybody have any problems with oil dipstick?

My oil dipstick in my 04 F150 has never read even somewhat correctly. It's always super high it seems. I'm just wondering if this is a normal problem, if I have the wrong dipstick and it's too long or something, or if my oil is actually too high. It's a yellow stick with a ring instead of a T-handle design. Anybody else run into this problem?

How many quarts do you put in when you change oil?
