Drained and filled the transmission (M6) and differential at 50K miles. Went with the BG Syncro Shift II + MGC for the trans, but stuck with the MotorCraft fluids in the diff. We'll see how it goes. My garage smells "wonderful" still...

Next up... wash, wax, and switch back to the summer tires (yay!).

Oh, and I just realized that I blacked out my car a while back and haven't updated my avatar. So add a photoshoot to the list of to dos...

Yeah, that diff fluid smell is something else!

When I changed mine last year I let it linger in the drain pan for a few days until my wife asked if “something crawled into the garage and died”

I'm lucky enough to not be bothered by the smell lol. Even Motorcraft XL-3 additive, which is the most potent gear oil related thing I've ever smelled, still wasn't too bad for me. But it will definitely stink up your entire garage if you don't store it in multiple zip loc bags, lmao.

Today I went back to the stock heat range 7 NGK LTR7CP13 spark plugs. I previously installed the hotter heat range 6 NGK 6509 plugs based on NGKs website picker.

Replaced windscreen after a fellow motorist got distracted in fast lane and ended up in marbles with large evasive steering action which sent a couple of skud missiles towards my screen, one of which landed in centre of the sensor display and then proceeded to meander across the window in front of me….grrr. Good thing is the replacement genuine window has slightly more pronounced ford emblem which I like..😢😅

That camo wrap is looking fat as hell bro. It's not something i'd do but I love to see wild stuff like that.

How did it turn out? How much was the repair if you don’t mind me asking?
It was a small chip that started to make a star, about the size of half the tip of my pinky finger down on the lower half of my driver's side view out of the windshield. You can totally see it but it should hopefully stop it from spreading. I have Geico and it was covered, with zero deductible so I am not sure what it would have cost. It took him about 35-40 minutes total.

I'll try and get a picture from the drivers seat to show what it looks like later.

Actually, looking at my email, they sent me an invoice to show what Geico paid and it would have been $66 with tax
