Just returned from Afghanistan. What maintenance should I do to my car?

Be sure to change your oil as it breaks down over time even when not being used, check your tires for dryrot since it has been sitting, look for any cracks in the tread or sidewall and if there is any have the tires replaced. Inspect your engine air filter to make sure no critters have set up a home in there since the vehicle has been sitting. Take it to any oil change facility and they should be able to do this for you. Last if there are any grease fittings on the suspension/ stearing have them lube them as the greese will dry out over time. Thanks again and welcome home. I am an Iraqi vet and i know the transistion back to normal life can be difficult, Best of wishes
