Hard knocks

thanks to the forum sponsors who indeed make this sight possible!

I have a 2001 F-150 Triton v8 with a knocking in the engine compartment, funny but yesterday the oil guage was flickering up and down and it shut off, now the noise is extremely loud and my truck is now a veggy. Whats going on in the brain of my truck?

Hi and welcome to FTE
How many miles on your truck? How often does the oil get changed?
