I think this is probably what I am going to do. I just need to talk to the dealer and see if they will put MotorCraft or Castrol blend in. I know that the dealer gives the warranty out hoping to upsell you on service, but I know what is in the service manual (not a lot actually) up to 150k so for now I think it makes sense to maintain service there. I can deal with the 30-40 oil changes, now the 40 dollar air filters are another story
