2003 Ford Expedition 8cyl. Recently was riding down hwy and got "reduced power, low oil pressure." Checked oil and was fine. Was time for oil change, so got it changed for good measure. Found no problems, but got same message 3 days later. Oil pump?

Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge could be the oil pressure switch/sensor acting up

Thanks Rasmataz. Unfortunately, I do not own any mechanic gauges. Guess it's back to the shop for me.... :-(
