I got a 2013 mustang sadly a v6 but its enough power for me for now. Any good pointers to keep this car going good would be great. Also i heard that the oil change is now 5000 miles and not 3000 miles. Is that true?

Welcome Matthew. Not sure why you say sadly a V6. If you wanted a V8 the time to pick would've been before you purchased. Most people say the V6 is quite powerful. I'm sure you'll be happy. Follow your owners manual for maintenance recommendations. Today's oils and engines have come a long way from where they were when the 3k interval was set. 5k-7500 is a good number. I like 5k.
