Oil blew up
I'll tell the story to a ending of an era I suppose and also seek answers.
Started up da big bad ford. Threw er' in R then D. Drove by my cousin within 10 seconds of leaving my driveway. I get a text right away "You're leaking something". I look at my cluster & my oil is at L. I drive back 15 seconds home with no oil and notice all my oil in my driveway. Pop open my hood and she's everywheres. What could it be? Didn't bother to check, kind of laughed it off and cleaned the "Nova Scotia Oil Spill 2016" & went on with my day.
Previously.. In march, I got my manifold gaskets done and replaced all sparkplugs. After the sparkplugs were done I noticed it ran rougher than ever. Read codes and misfire from cylinder 1 so i replaced the coils all around and still misfire cylinder 1. Said f$*k it and lived with the annoying misfire underload (1600rpm) and the annoying engine light on & blinking now and then. Replaced my oil every 5k km (like 3k miles) & it ran fine still until the whole oil thing.
PS. Truck has 105k km on it (probably like 78k miles)
I'm glad she gave up on me at noon. The night before I just took a fine lady out to the drive-in with no problemos at all. That would have been a terrible date night 😂
I might fix it just to learn whatever the f$*k it is, but no hopes right now lol. Probably moving onto a Mazda RX-8. 😎

Likely at last oil change old filter gasket stuck to engine and when new filter was installed there was now 2 gaskets eventually it will blow out and you will lose your oil very fast. Simple fix replace filter and oil [making sure old gasket is removed] replace oil, clean up and drive

So, all that oil and you have no idea ?
Have your cousin pick you up, -go bicycle hunting. Sounds like you could benefit from something engine-less.
