I'm not dumping $300 worth of oil and filter down the drain with 500 miles on it just because it's been sitting for a year or 2 in a climate garage in the south no less. Only reason I changed mine after a year was because it was the break-in oil and had 600 on it. What's in it now won't be changed for a while, unless I start putting a lot of miles on it.

Gotta love the Mustang cars.
Thanks man.
Hopefully soon. I have a couple things planned for it as well, if things go the way that I want them to. We'll cross that bridge when I get to that point in a year or less. Hopefully.
Lots of ideas actually. Everything just cost so much money these days, it's out of control.

Lee! What brand of oil and filter are costing you $300.00, or are you paying a Ford dealership to change the oil for you? It costs me no more than $60.00 for 6 quarts of Motorcraft 5w30 synthetic blend and Motorcraft FL-820S oil filter... However, I still continue to change my own oil and filter...

Thanks for clarifying, Lee! I didn't realize your "22" GT500 takes 12 quarts of 5w50 full synthetic oil... However, I don't quite understand what a cartridge is, or is that the oil filter? Guess I'm still stuck in the old school technology, being as my "06" GT takes just 6 quarts of motorcraft 5w30 synthetic blend motor oil and motorcraft FL-820S oil filter...LOL.
Lol, thanks Tony. You know how much I love yours, I still miss the green one, loved that car.
Lol, I m just thankful I don't have one.

Tony! When compared to my "06" GT, I also consider your "19" Roush Stage 3 as having one of those big boy engines as well...LOL
Sure got that right!
Must be real nice to not have any car payments on your "22" GT500, Lee!
Sure got that right!
Yeah, it doesn't have a spin off disposable filter like we used to. It's a canister and you change the filter element cartridge out for a new one.
