Definitely..... Many years ago (1972-1974) when I worked at a small Ford dealership in Louisiana, I had a 1972 Ford Pinto and changed my own oil (4 quarts including filter on a 1600 cc engine). I'd start to buy my oil and the parts guys wouldn't let me pay for it since I worked there. Finally, I just picked up a case with enough filters and kept it at home, so for a couple of years, I had free oil changes.

True!!! I've got one of those Ford Owner Advantage cards where every 4th oil change is free. Strangely enough, the last oil change on my diesel before I traded it was free. Sure was nice not to have to pay $85.00 that time.
