Question Should I be doing anything special?

I just bought a 01 Ram 2500 QC 4x4 auto with the diesel. It has 135k miles on it and looks brand new. What I need is to find out what I should be checking, adjusting, inspecting, changing, etc. This is my first diesel, and so far I love it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh yeah, I don't have any service records, so I have no idea what has been done to it over its life so far. Thanks in advance.

Read the post titled "100,000 mile club, what now?" in this section. Sorry, I don't know how to link you to it.

Imagine my surprise when I visit the 24 Valve Engine forum to find "2manykids" starting a thread titled, "Should I be doing anything special?"

You can also take your VIN into any Dodge dealer and ask them to pull the service history. If it was ever worked or service at any Dodge dealer, it'll show on the service history.
