After using up my Ford Pass Rewards and paying when out of town, I just did the fifth oil change at 22K. Ford dealers offer a competitive rate for The Works with tire rotation, however although Ford advertises it at $49.99- there of course is an asterisk. Ford in Montrose, CO honored it, yet many are much higher. My tire store (called Tire Store) is awesome; they not only do free rotation for anyone, they fix your flat too. Old time Pros that do it all vs. the likes of Discount/America's Tire where although they will rotate anyone for free, they will also tell you that nail in the tire two inches from the sidewall can't be fixed
I digress; did my own oil change and looking at the few videos I was set to have a harder time than usual. Wasn't that bad fortunately. Have to get up on some decent ramps to work and need to remove the four bolt/screws holding up the fuzzy cardboard. Skip the first one towards the front. 13MM for first two, then 5/16 for rear two. Used a Milwaukee cordless to make it easier. Was expecting a huge initial flow from what I saw on YouTube, yet didn't happen. No big deal. Probably easier on the Yukon, yet not that much different. With Costco Full Synthetic now running $21/10 quarts I will DIY and save not only $$, but some hassle at Dealer and get full synthetic vs. synthetic blend.
