Default 5000 mile suggestion

Hey, I just hit 5000 miles in my car (only had it 3 months). I had the oil changed at Nissan per their spec at 2500 miles, and am looking to do this round of maintenance myself. What would you recommend me doing? Oil/filter, tranny flush, differential, what? Thanks.

everytime you change the oil you change the oil filter! tranny i say 15,000 miles along with regreasing the differentials. maybe 30,000 depending on how hard you drive (traffic/city driving)
