Looking for advice from some more knowledgeable than myself. (Which seems to be most on this board.)
My 2001 4X4 ST just passed 30K miles. (I've had it for four years, but we use my wife's company car for long trips, so it took a while to hit 30K and it's mainly around town driving.) I'm going to bring it in for the scheduled service, but I wondered if there was anything else anyone here would recommend having done as well.
I've changed the oil & filter every 3K miles, changed the air filter twice, changed the fuel filter once around 12K and the brakes have been completely redone in the front. (Plastic pistons in the calipers warped, locked down on one wheel and caused me to have to replace both calipers, rotors and pads.)
I'm interested in improving performance and fuel economy (I'm only getting 13 MPG around town.) as well, but I don't want to do anything that'll cause damage down the road or require lots of additional maintenance. The Xcal2, air intakes and exhaust work sound great, but I don't know enough to know what kind of impact that has on the truck over the long haul or whether they require more maintenance once they're in.
Any advice would be great.
