I decided to let the dealership do mine at 75,000 miles when my 04 developed a miss. I got my truck back today along with a $1007 bill. $141 for cost of plugs, $74 for a bad coil, and $735 for 10.5 hours labor including extraction of 6 broken plugs. I didn't think I'd have to pay that given the TSB that is out, but they told me Ford says to charge every hour to customer!
