Regular Maintenance?

Hey Everyone, my wife and I are moving cross country (from DC to SanFran) and we're taking the fit. We're trying to figure out what maintenance we should have done before such a long trip. While the car is two years old we've only put 6,500 miles on the little guy.

Other than oil change, what else should we be having done? The 'service menu' says all kinds of things need to be replaced after 2 years OR 30,000 miles. Because the move is expensive I'm trying to not spend money on dealer 'recommendations' so any recommendations you can make would be awesome!

Yea you really shouldnt have to do anything with 6,500, besides what kenchan said. Make sure your spare is inflated and the tools are all there incase you get a flat. Top off fluids, check brakes, wipers, bulbs, etc...

The Fit is GO for the cross country adventure!
