99LDF250

What's goin on guys, New to the forum here. I have a 99 F250 LD with a 4.6 that a just inherited when my grandfather passed away. The truck has 111k and has probably never seen a day of hard work or rough riding in its life, he only used it to drive from PA to Fl twice a year to go fishing otherwise it was parked in his barn. Definitly a mint truck...

Anyway, I'll be flying up to PA tomorrow to drive this truck back but wanted an opinion on changing the tranny fluid. I was up there last moth and did all the other fluids, brakes and other services to be sure it was road worthy. It has 111k on it and is due for a fluid change, what are you guys running in your trucks and would you say to just do a pan drop and filter change pre trip and then do it again when it's home in fl? Opinions please, and I have not checked on which tranny option this truck came with yet but feel this should be addressed before I leave for a 1500 mile trip.

Thanks,
Shane

i want to say my gas 06 f150 wants it changed at 100k. Not 100% on that though. I would change the fluid just bc it has set alot. You can always look at and smell the fluid. If you are questioning it and can afford to do it; then do. If it were me; and i was gong to do the fluid; i would also do the filter. Agin i think it goes back to the condition of the fluid really.
