What does everyone have for oil pressure???

I test drove a truck yesterday, and noticed that the oil pressure went from around 30 @ idle to 80 when getting up to speed. Is this normal?? I want to possibly buy this truck but want to be sure this is not an issue. Its a 01 automatic 2wd.

Thanks!!

Yes that is normal, LB7's run alot of oil pressure. My gauge is usually pegged out when its cold and im up to speed, once it warms up good then its around 60-70 when im on the highway
