My MM just clocked in 50k on her. Bought her from Zack:D (that guys great) in '07 with 32,xxx and I've loved it from day 1. I will post pics later, it always rains in NC so it's another gloomy day. Anyway, Is there any maintenance that needs to be done at this point?

Here's what I do:

oil 5K
CAI filter clean and re-oil 10K (I have a spare)
trans service 25K
paint and body maintainence as needed
keep inside clean, vacuum as needed
replace brake fluid (come on, it still stops)
replace antifreeze (still good to -31F)
plugs yearly
pcv 100K

There's probably more, but I can't think of any now.

I like your list, but you forgot to change the differential gear oil. Did mine at 45K and it was already dirty brown rather than honey color.
Been raining here for a week in sunny California and I have cabin fever too.
Brake fluid last only 5 to 10 years, so it does need to be replaced soon on the Marauders.

I would start with all fluids first, maybe an alignment if it hasn't been done recently too. Check all belts and hoses while your at it. OR we could do what Impalaslayer did:))

Fuel Filter, Clean Throttle body, clean engine bay, new brake pads, alignment...
Grease door hinges etc.
