Not being funny, but all you would need, is for an 'ex-ford-mechanic' to be working for you, but for the most part, an independant garage can do most if not all the work, for a lower cost, and once you are out of warranty, don't need to use OEM parts.
You could even say, the argument you give, above, is Ford actually trying to make the cars only dealer repair only, thats monopoly isn't it?
