Ford Nickel and Diming Us
Anyone else notice that every fluid capacity is just a little more than what is in the container?
I just bought oil, rear end oil and friction modifier.
Oil needs 8.5 qts - whether you buy two gallons or 8 qts, you still have to buy that extra quart for the 1/2.
Rear end oil needs 5 pints - only sold in quarts (2 pints each), you have to buy an extra quart to get the extra pint.
Friction modifier requires 5 oz. - only sold in 4 oz bottles, you have to buy an extra bottle to get the extra oz.
Extras =
$13.00 qt oil
$23.04 rear end oil
$9.80 friction modifier
Total of $45.84
I might sound paranoid - but just multiply that times 10 million = half a billion dollars
Eff me!
