No. See your manual, there is no 60,000 mile maintenance except in your dealer's cash register.

Nothing to grease on your truck but good to consider changing oil in differential(s), transmission (especially if you two or are in a climate requiring more than average shifting) & and transfer case if you have one.

Inspect your brakes if they haven't been routinely checked.

Trans is sealed for 150K miles on the 2016 6 speed per dealer. Will check that out.

60K sounds like a waste of money at $400 plus.

Yeah, I get it. They do say transmission is good for 150,000 miles.

How many miles is it again that Ford will warranty the transmission for?

At $400 I understand your concern. I thought I may take it in but if that's the cost I'll do it myself. I can either change it myself (or have it changed) or I could gamble that it will last 150,000 miles with zero service. Doesn't seem like it should require 3 hours or more labor for a shop to do the work. Easily a few hours for me laying on my back in the garage though.

It's always a good idea to consider the differences between the technical manuals that state service intervals vs. those that do it (mechanics that see failures due to no maintenance).

I was just saying it is something to consider, not that it is required. Diff's are said to go 100,000 on the oil. That's also a long time.

As stated, maintenance schedule is in your manual. Dealers try to perform a lot of unnecessary maintenance, including cleaning fuel injectors, etc. Ford sent them a letter a ways back telling them to stop this, some did not listen.
