Thanks all for the replies! I knew $700 was way too much for the maintenance with majority of the work being inspections. What do you guys recommend for 60k maintenance. My bro-in-law says that the 30k, 60k and 90k maintenance plans are all BS and I agree. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I would like some piece of mind by changing out what is necessary with my mileage. Any recommendations?

I'm at 61K . All I've done is replace the PCV valve, added K&N air filter, cleaned the throttle body and intake manifold with seafoam and toothbrush. Replaced the fuel filter, cleaned the TPS, MAF/IAT sensor with electric spray and rotated my tires and changed the oil. You don't really need to do all of this, it's just I like to pop my hood and work on stuff. I did all of this in my driveway and even rotated my tires with one Jack and jackstand all by myself in the driveway, with the supplied lug nut wrench. So all can be done by yourself.
