Sunnyvale Ford or Frontier Ford?

Hi,
It's time for my ATF to be changed, and before I take on the messy job myself I figured I'd post to see if either of these dealers might be capable of doing the job without ruining my truck? I purchased the truck at Frontier, but haven't had any real work done by them.

thx

SS

I use S&C / San Francisco Ford, 11 Industrial Street, San Francisco, CA 94124, (415) 553-4400. I just had them replace the transmission fluid in both my trucks. They use the MOC flush system. I supplied the synthetic fluids (Royal Purple & Lucas Oil), and they charged me for labor. Rates are competitive with the local market at $80 per hour. A transmission flush takes about 1 hour. You should be able to walk into 4WheelParst.com Oakland Store, 1944 E.12th Street Oakland , CA 94606, 510-436-4979, and buy the Royal Purple, or even have them perform the service. 4WheelParts.com offers a competitive service package for trucks. As a matter of fact, I know a guy who gets his VW beetle serviced there.

I bought my 04 F150 through Sunnyvale Ford and I've very happy with the service they've done every 5k miles, though once they broke the air cleaner assembly. The only experience I've had with Frontier was when I bought my Roush wheels and their parts dept didn't seem very knowledgeable; they would've forgotten to order the lugs nuts if I didn't remind them.

thanks

For the good words, that is. I'll check out Sunnyvale, and that coupon is a bonus.
