My first pull stick read FULL the next 2-3 it was down on the stick. ole Dad came thru again.

Your old man is perfectly right.
Never trust the first one you look at ;-)
Anyway, when you checked and identified the 3/4 down the stick, how many miles was that after the oil change?
Also, right after the oil change, was the level at the very top of the hash marks? Did you check?
