Oil Truck

How often do I change the oil in a new truck?

I just bought a new Chevy truck. How often should I change the oil during the first year. Any other precautions with a new engine that I should be aware of?

i own a repair shop,and id change it every 3-5 thousand miles ,don't go over that,other than that you should be fine,and with a new vehicle ,just use good common sense,and do your self a favor,get the owners manual and read it,this is a good book to read,if you,ll set down and read the whole book it will tell you when you need to change the oil as well as where all the fuses are located at,and which ones to use in it,most people sit back and don't have the slightest clue of what to do when a fuse blows,read the book and you,ll know all this stuff and more,and it has in it a real good maintenance schedule also,good luck with it enjoy it while its new,i hope this help,s.
