Why do you have to force your oil dipstick in 5.9L ram and it doesnt read correctly?
Didn't notice what year your truck was, but if it has a 5.9L gas engine, there is a sheet metal guide for the dipstick spot welded to the inside of the oil pan. It may have come loose, allowing the dipstick to pass between the guide and the oil pan, resulting in binding and improper gauging of the oil level.

Check oil hot or cold?
Most owner's manuals will advise you to check the oil level when the engine is warm (after driving 10 or 15 minutes), about 5 minutes after you stop the engine. This allows the warmed oil to be fully circulated in the engine, and then drain down to the oil pan where its level can be measured by the dipstick. You should never add more oil than you need, as indicated by the dipstick.
