Change your own Oil?

I can't believe that for once my timing was right on. I decided yesterday that I would do an oil change and tire rotation on my 2013 with almost 10000 miles. It rained most of yesterday and was chilly with only a high of 55 degrees. I decided to wait until today. I do it every 5000 miles and disregard the OLM (oil life monitor). I was all set to use one of those 7 five quart jugs of Motorcraft 5W20 synthetic blend that I purchased at the price of $4.95 a jug.

 

Thanks again to those who posted about the discontinuation at the one auto parts store which carried these. There were actually no stores in the Dallas area, but I was able to purchase the 7 jugs from a store in Ohio online. We were driving up around Christmas to visit family, and I had my son pick them up for me.

 

I got my mail yesterday afternoon, and in it was a service notice from my dealership. It contained a coupon for a free oil change and filter using the same oil I was going to. That's a no brainer, I'll let them do this change for free and do the tire rotation myself.

 

I really can't believe it didn't come until after I had done the change myself! :hyper:
