My last sparkplug change did it at 40k.. just cause i didnt have the tools to do it..plugs was still in good conditions. i dont know maybe its just me... oil change is a different story... i change mine every 7k tranny at 15k-25k (depends on how my tranny feels. Diff at 25k.

I agree, Sean. It was just the longevity of the plug in the head. The previous owner took exceptional care of the vehicle so for me, $150 or so every 3 years is ok. For those doing 15-18k/year, probably keeping the plugs in good shape, tracking probably keeps the plugs clean as well. You just reminded me to do the diff soon.
