Default Newbie from AZ

Hello all, coming from AZ with a '13 3.5 Ecoboost. I'm someone who knows nothing about maintaining and fixing my own trucks but am eager to learn. FF/Paramedic by trade, so fixing people is a lot easier to me than fixing vehicles.

It's important to keep your vehicle maintained. Air filter, oil+filter, transmission oil, differential oil, antifreeze coolant. All examples of fluids that need a changin once in a while.
you should be concerned because if you don't follow the general maintenance schedule your truck may let you down.
you should also clean your truck regularly and the brake dust off the tires and wheels.
Im not an official Ford rep, im not a pro mechanic either, In my opinion, the best place to buy parts for a Ford truck is Ford. Because your not experienced, the parts alway fit.
