Nope, you're fine, then. Just get it changed at 3k miles, and disregard the time frame recommendation by Jiffy Lube. You'll get 250k+ miles out of your 4R without major issue. Enjoy.

I agree with him and if your lucky to get a good motor 250 is not that hard to do. I have 208 on my 1998 ford explorer and I tow a boat about every other week. I'm looking at a bigger boat so now its time for a newer truck. Ok, before everyone starts jumping on Mr gas burner here's the deal. The bigger boat (only by 3 feet) has a newer motor and gets better gas milage then my current boat (also a good time to buy a boat). I have found 2006 Expidition 4x4 with only 23,000 for only $10,500 which is a steal. I'm going to drive the wifes car and she get the new truck but she is a stay at home mom who does not drive allot. So with the rise in gas I'm now able to buy a newer boat and truck for about what the truck would have cost about 2 years ago.
