    I just bought a 2004 GTP with 75k miles on it. What should I do right away, or check right away to it to make sure it lasts its longest?

    Plugs, wires (stock replacements)

    Oil change.

    transmission pan drop and filter change, new fluid.

    PCV valve.

    Air filter

    Take the TB off and clean it along with the MAF sensor, use the right cleaners.

    CHeck over the condition of suspension parts and driveline parts. Wheel bearings, ti rods, brakes etc etc.
