Just for BS sake you mentioned USAA, from North East Florida and being on the 5 in San Dog. Military? I'm from North West Florida, was stationed in San Diego on Minesweeps and obviously have USAA.

Yeah, I've learned my lesson here.

Minor Update: Upon initial inspection Ford has found nothing wrong with the motor. They've performed compression testing (0% loss), bore scope (no visual indication of damage), and an inspection of the oil that was left. The next step is to disassemble the oil filter Valvoline used to look for metal debris, perform an oil change, drive 40 miles, and disassemble the Ford OEM Oil Filter to check for metal debris (As well as the visually inspect the oil coming out of the motor). If nothing is found they believe they can give it a clean bill of health. Do I demand an inspection of rod bearings / underside of the motor.

Mossy Ford guarantees that they've put their most experienced and thorough mechanic on it and are looking to find problems. According to their Tech I must have stopped the motor at just the right time to prevent damage before the oil was lost. (Total on time from indication to motor off was within 10 seconds if I recall correctly.)

@FordTechOne
Soooo, is either Mossy Ford or Valvoline going to guarantee the engine to 300,000 miles?
If your engine let's go in let's say 100k, the million dollar question is, would it have went 200k if this incident didn't happen? They owe you an engine, or a guarantee.
