Yeah good point Mr. lil bastard. You might as well get a check list of things to get done(most DIY) unless you have all records from previous owners. First thing after you get this done, change your oil every 5k miles or once a year. $60 ish doing it yourself. I use Castro syntech 10W40 Always use xxW"40" and never xxW"30"(probably 5w40 in S. cal). I would do your 60k miles maint early as it will never hurt. Most of it can be found on DIY forum on here.
