i found the stock filter location to be quite easy to change, ive certainly changed worse. When i changed it the first time it was a pita cuz the factory had the damn thing so freakin tight. Had to go from the top n get leverage on it. Shouldnt be a problem next time. Glad to help tho.

I would like to see where you mounted it and are you going with a single or double?

Pics when you are done, Thanks.

I agree with vvyk3d that I find the filter location one of the better designs for a late model truck. The drip tray actually works to route the oil to a catch pan, unlike my last truck that channeled it right to the exhaust pipe. I have the 5.4L and I'm sure it's different on the 4.6 though.

Yea its not too hard to get at I just think it could be easier, maybe Im just used to my old mustang, it took like 10-15 minutes for an oil change, thats all, on the truck it took me awhile because i had to switch from top to bottom so much, what can I say I'm a spoiled lazy american!
