Per the '2007 Model Year Scheduled Maintenance Guide':
Every 15,000 miles - Inspect automatic transmission fluid level, if equipped with dipstick.
Every 30,000 miles - Change automatic transmission fluid on vehicles equipped with the Torqshift transmission. Replace the remote filter element on the vehicles equipped with the Torqshift transmission. Inspect automatic transmission/transaxle fluid level on all other vehicles, if equipped with dipstick. Consult your dealer for your particular requirements.

Ok, so I pulled out the scheduled maintenance guide that came with my 04 F150. According to Ford, for the 30K service:
Change automatic transmission fluid on all vehicles equipped with 4R100. Inspect automatic transmission/transaxle fluid level on all other vehicles, if equipped with a dipstick.
So, for my 04, that means every 30K, I'm to change the fluid.

The 4R100 is the tranny they put in the super duty, and the old F150 lightnings.
You have the 4R75E tranny, and it is supposedly good for 100k miles.
THEY DO NOT PUT A TORQSHIFT OR 4R100 IN F150S!!!!
Okay, I misread above. What transmission do I have, and how often do I need to change the transmission? I'm coming from Jeeps and Dodges where there is no requirement to change the tranny fluid unless used for severe duty. Thanks...

Ford recommends the same, supposedly the fluid is good for the life of the tranny. I personally disagree, and like to do it every 50-60k miles, but every 30k is NOT necessary!
