Default Spark Plug Access

I want to change the spark plugs in my '11 F150 3.5 that has been leveled. Other than changing oil, I haven't done anything under the hood myself. I think I can handle the plug change, but what in the world do you stand/sit on the reach the engine?

you simply crawl under the hood! stand on the bumper, or get a small step ladder/stool

I kneel on the front fan / radiator support bracket. It's not going to break.
