DIY 60k service, VERY EASY!!!!

After talking to several dealers, I decided that the 60k mile service for my 2000 SE V6 was a rip-off, so I just had them do the free timing belt replacement. I bought all new fluids (brake, steering, coolant, auto trans), serpentine belt, brakes (rotors and pads) and decided to do the work in my driveway. I haven't tackled the cabin filters or fuel filter yet, but the rest of the work was a piece of cake!
I normally shy away from anything beyond changing the oil. If you don't feel like paying the ~$600 for the service at your dealer and have a few hours, don't be intimidated by this job!
