ANy ideas on what my oil change intervals will be now?

you will be pleased to know that the bypass filter can stay in place for years, as long as it takes to 50,000 miles, the full flow will last 25,000 miles
I would take oil samples at 20,000 mile intervals. that is only because you probably dont have the nerve to wait 40,000 miles to do a oil sample.
let me ask you this question, how long will you actually keep your truck?
I know for a fact the oil now in your truck will out last your tires...
dont worry anymore about silly lil oil changes, if you pay attention to your oil samples you will find that oil changes are for gubbmment workers
when ford ask you for oil change invoices you hand them one oil sample sheet.
