Because a 3 year old thread got dug up with misinformation and fake news. The 6.7 has only had steel and composite oil pans on very early trucks 2011-2012.

You have an early model with the composite pan and yellow drain plug. Later models have steel pans.

You can buy a steel pan, some RTV and shorten your pan bolts and replace it with a steel pan for less than $100.

Dorman Products makes steel pans.

Seems to be a new trend, a lot of years old threads coming alive lately.

It is time for the 2011-2016 trucks to be purchased used by the second tier younger owners.
