With just over 17,000 miles on the odometer, our 2009 Ford Flex Limited is requesting an oil change.
Edmunds' Maintenance Guide estimates we should pay $28.74 in parts (oil and filter) and $63.00 labor for the LOF and tire rotation in our Santa Monica zip code.
We'll see what our local dealer has to say.

well, to be fair, there aren't 30 people driving yours either... and you probably didn't take it to oregon...

Haven't heard much from the Flex lately, I had forgotten about it. Speaking of which, where are the Fit and the G8?

What does LOF stand for?

LOF = Lube/Oil/Filter
$92 for an oil change and tire rotation??
That same service would be $60 here in Southeastern, PA.
Better yet, do the oil change yourself for $25 and get the tires rotated for $20 at a tire shop or something. Walmart sells Motorcraft filters AND Motorcraft 5W20 oil.
