PL is from Jersey so we always give him a little maneuvering room.
Personally, I used to compare both dip stick and gauge all the time but I found that as long as the car was warm and level, the dash gauge was right on and far more convenient to use. The dash gauge will not tell you if you are overfilled and overfilling will kill your AOS quickly which may be what he means. I check my oil with the dip stick after each change to insure it is not overfilled and then I trust the dash gauge for oil level after that. Use the method that is most comfortable for you.
