Be nice, y'all, my first post on this forum.
I have a 2020 Classic with the V6 and 3.21 rear end. I bought it new, and tend to keep my vehicles until they have at least 200k miles. I want to do what I can to ensure this one makes it at least that far.
A thread on another non-automotive forum included a discussion on factory-recommended service intervals for F150s and how over-optimistic they are. Examples were 10k miles for oil changes and 100k miles for sparkplug changes, among others. Yes, I realize this is an apples-to-oranges comparison. I'm trying to tap into the forum's collective experience to see if the same thing applies to my truck. I've already decided that I'm going to ignore the manual's "don't change the oil until the computer tells you to" guidance and stick to 5k miles.
What say ye?
