First Oil change Miramar V10
I have a little over 2000 miles on our new Miramar. I have a short 100 mile round trip scheduled next week but then next month have a 1000 mile round trip. I would like to get the oil changed before...

I dumped the first oil at about 3000 or so. Switched to Ford full synthetic 5-20 at 5000. Will head out and change at 10,000'in a few days.
Got a Futmo valve with the nipple for a hose to get it over the axle to install this time. Likely will switch to Mobi1 the next change just because it is easier to get.
Had a long discussion with the local Ford Light Truck dealer when they were doing some warranty work. He STRONGLY recommend that I change oil at 5000, that Ford was crazy on this 7500 mile stuff and that I would praise and thank him in a few years to follow his advice. All he did was confirm what I was planning to do all along.
