just go home and wash and wax the car

that would be the perfect 30k service

If you've driven it hard I'd do the following. Change the air filter, flush the radiator, change oil and filter (if it's been 5k or more since last time), change the fuel filter, lube secondary cable and pivot, and here's the biggy change the tranny fluid and filter. If you trust where you buy gas you can skip the fuel filter. However, if you buy gas out of town a lot I'd change the fuel filter.
