not to take sides....but i think when people pull their plugs at 15k miles or 28k miles and make the claim that they dont break....that is not the same at the 100k mile interval that ford claims that the plugs should be changed...and like freakyfx4 is saying not alot of trucks have hit the 100k mile mark, but in a few years when alot will be hitting it...then the true plug breakage will show up

If you're smart enough you can prevent this problem.

Do you have an external mic? That horrific 'creeaaaakkkk'ing sound is something everyone needs to hear.
But, hopefully, without a "*snap* Awww, chit #@&!!*** " accompaniment.
