Motorcraft Full Synthetic

[tcruise]

I went to the ford dealer today for my first oil change because it's free and asked about full synthetic; $100 oil change! No way. So I went over to parts to see how much they sell the Motorcraft Full Synthetic 5w20 for.... $10.99qt! Out of control.

The huge Ford dealer here charges $50 for a full synthetic oil change and $25 for the syn-blend change.

$100 oil change on a Ford Taurus? I almost spit my coffee out!

Also, Tom Cruise aren't you highly into Scientology anyway, and give them millions of dollars? I can't even believe you didn't just pay it for your new Ford Taurus and go on with your day.

Have you seen your daughter yet?

For a while AAP carried full synthetic Motorcraft for $7.99 a qt. that was a few years ago when I noticed it. I'm not sure if they still carry it or not. If you can get Kendall synthetic in your area it should be similar, except it will likely have TI in it.

Both oils are blended by ConocoPhillips

They clearanced it out here a few years ago. I bought the last they had pretty cheap.

Parts and service is what profits the dealerships,not new car sales or floorplanning their "storage".The sales team is demanding those other 2 sources of revenue to "maximize" profit.Its a no brainer.Its whats been going on...forever.

This seems fitting for Tom Cruise and the dealership price.

You know much a Motorcraft Full Synthetic oil and filter change costs at the Ford Dealer? As rainman would say....



They don't call them stealerships for nothing.

And just think how much more you're over-charged when they put 10w30 conventional drum oil in it.

I'm not saying they would, but it happens.

And remember, the "stealership" monicker wasn't just stumbled upon by chance.
Dealerships have spent decades earning that title.

That's horrible!

Just did my oil today, a mix of Pennzoil Conventional and the rest was 1L of Quaker State Ultimate Durability 5W20.

Did the ATF as well, and used new crush washers and torqued to spec.

Working on your own car is dirt cheap compared to being robbed.
