dropping oil pressure
So we just changed the oil in the truck and now it randomly drops to low oil pressure and says check gages, then comes back up to normal after a second or two. It doesn't affect performance at all, and it doesn't seem to happen at regular intervals. Any ideas?

Used a Motorcraft/RACOR filter and Ford oil cap right?
If you did, you might have some trash in the relief for the Low pressure oil pump located directly behind the crank pulley. 12mm allen socket I believe.
Possibly the sensor could be failing as well, not completely, but intermittently.
