The dealer here charges $26 including rotation and inspection. I guess they figure they can get you for other services. I don't let them touch my car anymore after they torqued the lug nuts to 300 lbs. Besides that, I can do my own service with buying 15000 mile oil for $28 bucks per 5qts full synthetic. I buy 10qts, put 6 in my car and 4 in my woman's car and call it good. I have 8000 miles left on the oil I have in now and I can rotate my own tires.
Good by to all.

Ford parts locator checks stock in all Ford dealerships. The only one that showed up did not have the part on the shelf during a physical shelf check. And no search turned up any aftermarket replacements.
If we still had the car (now property of the local Lexus dealer) I would ask you to post a link if you were so sure.
Fact is, I own a '65 Mustang Convertible. It is as hobby car not a daily driver for the Mrs. I am willing to go to any necessary length to obtain parts for that car but it is different when you rely on it every day.
