Necessary Services ?

Hi all, I have had my 2K Max for about 5yrs now and have only a little over 60,000 miles. I haven't gone in for any so called scheduled services, I just do the regular stuff myself: such as oil change, rotate tire, check fluids, air filter replacement. The only problems I have had so far is with the O2 sensors and brakes which I had to take to the dealer. Do you guys reccommend that I take it in for a major service, and are engine/coolant flushes necessary ? Everytime I take it to the dealer it just seems they are all full of BS and they try to tell me I have extra stuff that I have to fix. Any suggestions on what I should maintain for as my car is slowly aging ...

I wouldn't if I was you, they will charge you an arm and a leg for nothing. I'd do what I could myself if I was you, there is a sticky somewhere I think, or maybe I saw a post here sometime last week, I'll try to find it for you.
