How are you checking your engine oil?

The picture above is after I pulled almost .5 qts out after adding 6.5.

I believe the issue is I did not get enough oil out because I had the font end on ramps. I'm going to start draining with the rear end also up. I'm thinking being on ramps leaves nearly a half quart in the pan. I'll then dump 6.5 in and call it good.

Mine is a little higher than yours. But it was very similar after the 6qt change. And also factory fill.
