So in the past 6 years, has that changed? And why not 4,500 miles between changes, or what about 5,500 or 6,000? Where's that line? Is there any way to tell that there is sludge building up?
It just seems you need an ESP (@ roughly $1500) to protect you from catastrophic engine failure...because, you never know...some new tech was introduced into an engine somewhere along the line, and now the mfg's recommendations won't "protect" you. Most likely, the odds are in your favor that you won't suffer the same fate...but then again, there are no guarantees.

It's like gambling. If you don't get it then your taking the risk that nothing catastrophic happens, and for the majority of car owners nothing does. Ford hopes that you do get it and nothing catastrophic happens. The house wins. Then you are left with two small groups. Those who buy the warranty and it pays for itself and those who don't buy it and it would have paid for itself. It's a crap shoot either way.
My grand-father always says : ''If they offer it, that's because they make profit out of it. A business is there to make money, not to lose some.''

Might ask Bob Cline at Zeigler to do a one day "best price ever-beats every one else"....
He's $25 cheaper than anyone else as it stands. What is he could do like another $25, to make it $50 cheaper than anyone else?
how many people would be interested? What would be the best time of the month to do such a thing?

As many of you might know, I been a long time promoter of the Ford ESP (now called Ford Protect), even back since 2011.
Many years ago, I worked out a promo code that F150 forum members could use to get a great deal on the Ford ESP. this was with Bob Cline at Zeigler Ford.
Flood Ford and Zeigler Ford are the two top contenders on this online ESP market.
There have literally been THOUSANDS of dollars saved by buying online.
Zeigler is currently $25 cheaper than Flood Ford using a promo code (taking $225 off their online prices).
If I convinced Bob at Zeigler to do a one day sale which would give you an additional $25 off (making it $250 off the online prices posted), how many people would perhaps be interested?
That's $250 off current online prices on zeiglerfordesp.com, and $50 off flood ford's current online prices.
Bob at Zeigler has been great over the years offering discounts to F150 forum members, an I've bought my previous ones from him as well.
what about the 13th or 14th of this month (SEP)?
enough people interested for me to ask Bob about doing this?

P.S I do not for Zeigler, I'm just a fan of saving forum members money now and over the years

I did look up Zeigler, and he is less than Flood. I too am awaiting delivery of a new '18, so I'll likely sign up with him, however, I prefer to wait until I've taken delivery first...which, according to cotus, should be end of this week! End of month would work better for me, but if you have a group now, go ahead. Thanks!
