We currently have 17,500 miles on our 2017 FX. I changed the oil and filters at 10,000 miles. By the time we leave for the Winkler rally in September we will have 18,000 miles on the unit, and upon arrival 19,000 miles. From Winkler we will be heading west to Jasper, Banff, Glacier and Yellowstone before heading back east to Michigan. At that point, we will have another 3,000 plus miles, or a total of 22,000 plus. We won't have time in our schedule to stop at the MB dealer in Winnipeg (or elsewhere) to get the 20,000 mile Service A work done en route. So, should we:
(1) have the Service A work done at 18,000 miles before we leave, or
(2) have the Service A work done at 22,000 miles after the extended trip?
From a warranty and prudence standpoint, Option (1) seems like the best choice, but as a thrifty Dutchman, Option (2) beckons. Your thoughts and opinions please.
