Some Ford E-150 owners report experiencing confusion regarding the necessity of oil top-ups every 500 miles, despite the maintenance schedule not specifying such a requirement. These owners note that if their vehicle shows no signs of leaks or smoke, frequent oil top-ups are generally unnecessary. Additionally, many emphasize the importance of adhering to the manufacturer's recommendations for oil change intervals to maintain the vehicle's proper functioning. Newer models equipped with the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor also help owners determine the appropriate timing for oil changes, further reducing the need for manual top-ups. Overall, unless specific issues arise, regular oil top-ups every 500 miles are not typically required for the Ford E-150.
