Maintence Schedule for 150K and up...
I have had my truck since ‘10. It’s an ‘05. I’m not a car guy. But I have had a family mechanic servicing according to the maintence schedule. But I’m at 154,000 miles and running like a champ. Is there a maintence schedule for 150K and up?

My take on 150K maintenance is this.
Ask yourself the question; what have you missed? There are certain fluids people tend not to change out that could eventually cause problems: Brake fluid, power steering. Has your coolant been changed out? What condition is your tensioner and idler pullies in? Has the MAF sensor been cleaned with MAF cleaner? Has the throttle body been cleaned out. If changing out the coolant, swap out the thermostat to a new one. What condition are the coolant hoses in? Has your differential fluid been changed out? Has your front suspension been inspected? What condition are your rear shocks in? Is your emergency brake good and tight and holding the truck solidly when you engage it?
Here are a few things you can ask yourself based on the truck's history.
