I don't keep any receipts but I will send in for oil analysis just for my own information. I'm not too worried about the dealer denying any claim and the burden is on them to prove you did something wrong, you will never have to prove you did something right in court under magnuson warranty rights. The dealer may require you to show receipts, that is a fact, but once you file a law suit watch how quick they buckle and they will be liable for more then just fixing your truck, and that is a fact as well. They cannot legally deny a legal warranty issue, they are the ones at risk when they do so. They get away with it because most consumers wont fight.

My best friend was a DIY oil changer when he had 6.0 Ford. He bought an extended warranty and at 123000 ish miles his head gasket blew. Extended warranty company wanted to see service records. He couldn't produce any other than saying I do it all myself. The extended warranty company said do the head gasket job yourself. $1500 wasted on a warranty.

Just keep that in mind when you are DIY'ing it. When it comes to warranty wether it's factory or aftermarket it all boils down to is finding a way not to pay!

Technically they would have to prove that not changing the oil caused the head gasket to blow. They can't deny the claim just because. Buying a third party extended warranty is basically a waste of money.
