    MM just turned over to 50K

    My MM just clocked in 50k on her. Bought her from Zack (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.

    Adjusted air in and air out.
    400+ timeslips.

    When in doubt, GAS IT! This will either fix the problem, or end the suspense.

    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)
