I changed the oil today at 1032 miles, and saw this on the oil pan. Anyone else have this? My build date was 12/15 - 12/16.

 

thats cool...neat little suprise...BUILT WITH AMERICAN LOVE AND PRIDE!!!! right here in the U S of A!!!

 

To you from Ford, with love...

That aint no production mark. Looks like someone is in love with someone down the line.

 

Haha! Pretty funny! B)


So what kind of oil did you use?

 

.......i hope ur using synthetic

 

That's cute.....it'll get me under mine just out of curiousity...wonder what 2mustangjohn would make of it?

 

Why did you change the oil so early? I have just over 1000 miles on mine, do you know something we don't or is it just the new car bite? But the heart was cool.

 

clear coat it for collector purposes

 

That was a nice touch. Do you think the assembly line workers did that out of love or out of boredom? It would be nice to think they did it out of pride in opening a new chapter in the Mustang's history!

 

That's what I'm thinking - they did it out of love for the Stang I changed it at 1K since it's a new engine, and I've done it on our past 3 new vehicles. I used Castrol GTX 5w-20, and will switch to Mobil1 at the 3K mark.

 

Pretty cool, it is just a reminder that Valentine's Day is just around the corner.....

 

Aaawww someone loves their job a bit more than required... that's cool B)

 

LOL! That is great!

I would document this as much as possible. Save the pics, print this thread, and clean that area at every oil change. That is the kind of fun production minutia that is going to be gold years down the road. For decades now, the classic Mustang crowd has been sweating over correct paint daubs and other production line details for their restorations. This one however, is one for the books.

 

yeah, unfortunately 20 years down the road no one will be able to ever be able to prove it was put on at the production line. Better get pics now.
