Included in the Labor charges is tire rotation, all fluid levels checked and toped off. Front universal joint lubricated. Brake condition and pad life.
It is my choice to use the brand of oil and filters indicated. There are a lot of off brand (Chinese) fuel filters on the market at cheep. Non of which I trust to protect the pump or injectors.
I posted this to give a prospective Diesel buyer my maintenance costs, yours may be differant and I have no knowledge of Ford or GM vehicles.
