I have a 2024 F150 5.0 at 40,000 miles.

any recommendations on where to take to get the pan dropped and fluid changed out in the Houston area? The place I used to go back in the day is no longer around. I don't want to do it myself.

Should I get it changed now or wait longer? Also, get a new filter while doing the change?

thx!

Houston meaning league city, woodlands, Katy, Baytown? Or like Houston Houston?

Your driveway with a fluid pump. No need to drop the pan, use the dipstick port.

I live up in Spring but I'm not opposed to going down South. So anywhere I10ish north works for me.

is it recommended that early? I know the stealership will always make it a reco. But IIRC with Ford its not due for a long while....or maybe even ever if you believe the "lifetime" transmission fluid.

I played it safe and had it changed at 75k miles. we tow a light boat a decent bit as well.

if it were just city driving you could likely wait even longer than I did.
