No Mess Oil Change

I have to disagree. Ford is one of the best, at least in the pre 1970's. That what I see in their engineering.
46+ years in the business. When the manufacturers built simple cars, no problems with any of them. My first stupid oil filter was on a 82 GM X body with a 2.5 R engine. Unscrew the filter and it drains right into the engine cradle. Dumb! In the last 28 years, I have been a MAC Tool dealer and get into a hundred automotive shops. Later model Fords are the worst. The Ford dealer techs complain the loudest! It wasn't too long ago the pick ups had 2 drain plugs. Duh! And all the shields and diapers Ford uses nowdays. The only thing that's worse is GM's upside down Ecotech filter a half inch from the exhaust manifold!
