Bought the 2015 Ford Expedition with Eco Boost today. They only had this one for a few days, and it was the first one sold from this dealer. We were debating on the EL or the regular length, and opted for the regular this go around. You can see the old suburban in the back ground.

The display is one thing but hand calculate and you'll get a more accurate mileage result. Also, most people change their oil more often than they really need to (I'm not saying that's a bad thing, better than the opposite)! But it does lend itself to spending alot more over the life of a vehicle than you really need to. And the waste it creates.
Best way to determine service intervals is to do a fluid lab test. Most would be surprised to find they can go much longer than they thought. Every vehicle, driver, geographical area, ect... is different and to say they are all equal for wear/tear and service intervals doesn't make sense.
Yes it costs a little bit but alot less per test than an oil change. Think about the $$ saved and betterment to the environment by extending intervals to only when needed!!
I get the other side as well that for $30 why worry about it and just get it changed every 3k.
But I run a diesel and the cost of fluid swap adds up quick and so I've been doing fluid analysis on it for the past 3-4 years.

Nice ride! I found myself counting your lugs (hope you don't mind).
Walked by an F-150 the other day and saw 7 lugs. Shook my head, rubbed my eyes, looked again. Yep 7. So weird.So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

The Eco's have so much torque they were snapping lugs. Many of us are drilling and adding the seventh lug to correct the problem. Some have tried to add 2 lugs for an even 8 but it's just to tight to get two more in there. Especially when you go to drill your wheels.

It was hard not to do the EL after having the Suburban. Had they had one, I would've probably opted for it. Jill knew exactly what color/options she wanted and sure enough of the two they had on the lot this one fit the bill.
