About transmission fluid: I have had the fluid drained and replaced on vehicles at about 70,000 miles, only if I have used them for towing frequently. I just feel that towing places a significantly higher strain on the transmission.
I have a friend that tows trailers with a GMC pickup. About 80% of the miles he drives involve towing trailers that weigh about 2,000 pounds. His last two pickups have both had transmission failures at about 60,000 miles.
