New 2002

Glad to be here! Recently got my first full size truck - 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 Z71 with 102k on my 5.3L V8. Really enjoying this truck!

So I had two Chevy Blazer ZR2's prior to this, so it's quite the difference for me. I was in a Blazer forum for years and can't say enough about how much you can learn and how much money you can save through the advice on here. Absolutely love it!

So I paid just under 9500 for my truck but then added a 2 year/24k powertrain warranty to the deal. I can cancel this at anytime but I am on the fence. Can anyone give me advice on things I should do now as far a maintenance is concerned? Senior members, what would you do if you just bought a similar vehicle? Any reason for concern at 102k? Vehicle is clean, no leaks and all my fluids are full and clean. No service records which I hate, but it did come with complete brake job and new tires. So I got that going for me

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to learning as much as possible about my new truck!
