Thats good, tune ups and oil changes are so cheap compared to what you can to do your motor if you dont maintain it.

the guys at Ford here all think i'n part nerds cause i always have my oil chainged around the 3-3500 km mark. say what you will, but i firmly believe that a lot of in-town driving causes the oil to deteriorate faster than normal. maybe i am out to lunch, but it can't hurt the truck!!!

I would agree with you Sherm, in city driving is a lot harder on vehicle. My '07 seems to be doing pretty good on fuel lately. The last time I filled up was three weeks ago in Davidson, I drove back to Regina and to work for three weeks and still have just a little under 1/2 left in the tank(That's with 400klm driven so far). The tank is fairly big though, somewhere around 30 Imp gal.

that does sound like good mileage Marlon!! i'll usually get around 300-350kms on the first half around town depending on how many material runs i have to make.
