So after enough fun in Afghanistan to last me a while, I'll be back to my truck and ready to pull it out of storage where it's been sitting for the last year. The truck just turned 90K so I'm wanting to do a full tune-up and possibly swap all fluids(possibly run full synthetic). Any suggestions? Also if there is anyone in the Tampa, FL area that knows a good place to do this I'm all ears.
Thanks,
Ryan

Synthetics are good, check plugs, wires. I'd reset the PCM too.

Drive it easy till you can fill it up with fresh fuel, after you fill up add cleaner to the system and do the plugs. If you have never done the wires and coil boots then you are due for those. Keep an eye on the input seals on the t-case, front and rear diffs, trans and drain plugs just because they have sat and not are going to be moving again.

Believe me I don't stand for people calling themselves Marines before they earn it at all. I just Commissioned 2 1/2 weeks ago so I'm boot as hell but still a Marine. I'm just IRR right now.
