Question 2005 CTD 60K Maint? Whats involved..Cost?

Anyone know what the Stealerships are charging for the 60k maintenance on a 2005 CTD 3/4 ton? And if so what does it all entail?

Thanks in Advance
Jason

The only thing the Stealer is going to do is check and fill if needed fluid levels, maybe even put a little grease on your door hinges and charge you several hundred dollars, heck they may even throw in a new air filter or maybe some new wiper blades. Stay as far as you can away from the so called check ups. You can do it all yourself for a fraction of the cost. my buddy got soaked for 450 bucks at the so called 60k service, and the only thing they really did that was worth anything was change the diff. fluid. the rest of the bill was just checking stuff, Heck, I would like to have that job.

do all the services yourself. at 60k if your prepared to spend $600.00. you can change all fluids with a good synthetic fluid. and if needed change your brake pads by your self and still have money for pizza and beer.
