Service at 60K is very sound preventative maintenance. Had mine done late last year.
The tranny doesn't need to be serviced until 60K or so?

I was told that a tranny service around 40K miles is ideal.

Thoughts?

Skratch, you would be better of getting to know your tech's on a personal level and have them perfrom the service on the side. IMO that's the best way to go.
