Depends on what kind of maint. schedule you are following. Mine has nothing at 50K, only an oil change at 51K and the big one for me is 60K.

Ck your owner manual under service maint. I follow what the owner manual shows. If you end up just doing a lube oil and filter, I would also do a tire rotation and change at least the rear diff. If you have pos track on the rear, be sure the inspection cover is removed and reseal. Thats because the clips inside the rear diff fall into the oil and grind up into the pinion and bearing, the clips hold the pos clutches so they don't chadder. Also fricton modifer too.
