Is your truck a manual or automatic? I would do most of that stuff myself, to save some cash and know that it was done right. Other things to do are check your air filter and change your pcv valve which are both things you can easily do yourself.

Eight plugs: $15, tranny fluid and filter: $25, diff fluid: $62, TB clean: $2, PCV valve: $6, oil change: $25, tire rotate: $0. Total $135. Knowing who did it: priceless.
