Our driveway is on a slight incline, but it's very slight. I'll throw a level on it tomorrow and see. FWIW after sending the Very Significant Other to work in it today and checking it fifteen minutes after her 20 mile trip home the oil was showing dead between the two plastic bits on the dipstick. That would be disappointing if such a slight out of level would skew the oil reading that much.
