1996 Toyota Tacoma Owner Comments

Since the date of purchase I smell gas on the oil stick indicating that fuel is in the crank case (confirmed by dealer). I was advised (by dealer)that it is not abnormal for vehicles mostly driven short distances, but I have driven long distances had oil changed and still have problem. Also, I have owned many vehicles, including Toyota trucks, and haven't had this problem before. Occasionally I have a strong smell of fuel for no apparent reason. I am trying to verify if this is indeed "normal" oil level does not appear to be affected.
