Hello. Just bought a used 2021 with 34,000 miles through Ford's certified program. The things looks like it's been well maintained by previous owner. I'm wondering if there's anything i should do maintenance wise now? Should I trust that the oil is good? The spark plugs? Anything I should do regardless?

Good time to do ALL fluids, that’s what I did at about that same mileage on my ‘19

Put it this way.
Do you fully trust anyone who you have never ever met?
Don't people who have a desire to make $$$$, ever have a problem to hid the truth?

I would still change all fluids, spark plugs, many hoses, and any thing else that may of aged since 2021?
This is cheap to do and help give you peace of mind.

I would recommend adding an extended warranty when your gold CPO runs out in a year. When I extended mine last year on my 2020 supercab there is special cheap pricing for gold cpo cars. I extended mine out to 10 years 120k for like $1600. Mine was built during the heater box issues so that was my main reason for purchasing it.

I bought my 2021 with 31k miles, so we’re pretty similar. Like most said: change coolant, fluids, filters, plugs and suspect hoses. Brake fluid too. Plugs are cheap, engine cover well worth it. My drive line fluids were all ok, except for the transfer case. Don’t know why that looked so bad, but the other owner towed, because it had a brake controller installed. It’s good to look and stuff now, just to see what you bought. Enjoy it.
