Default 2001 dodge ram 1500 V8 magnum

Just bought this vehicle with 80,000 miles from a neighbor that brought it to the dealership for every service before sitting it up for 3 yearss. Drained fuel ,flushed fuel system, new fuel filter and pump. Also flushed transmission and replaced filter. Will need a dash and paint but It drives well. Any suggestions for other things to service. Thanks in advance.

Have a look down the throttle body, see if you see oil in there. It's a two-piece intake, and likes to blow the gasket.

If you have all the service records, (dealership may let you see them, if you don't have copies) see what HASN'T been done recently, and take care of it. Changing ALL the fluids really wouldn't be a bad idea.
