68k. I feel like they would have been fine until 100k, I don't notice any different in how well it runs or the mileage.

Total was around 465. $45 for the plugs and then $420 for a Ford tech to remove 5 broken plugs. I had better success getting them out then he did

Yeah it was around normal from what I've heard. Just a lot more than I wanted to spend at that time
