How come Ford has decided to change the intervals of the oil change and fuel filter. when I bought my 96 F350, I was told that the oil should be changed every 3000 miles. which I did religiously for the 13 years that I owned it.
Now on the new Dodge, the onboard computer says every 7500 miles but it turned on at 6000 miles and told me I need to service the oil, the dealer said to do it every 6500 miles the book says 7500 it's like pin the tail on the donkey for service.
I guess thats why my F350 was in such good shape when I sold it, inside and out, you could have dinner served on the block it was that clean, if you know what I mean.
I think I'll go with my gut feelings and change it when it looks bad, and not when a dealer says to.
