you may want to rotate the tires also.

At 15k you should:
change your air and a/c filter
lube the drive shift and slip joint ,
rotate your tires and check you PSI.( you should rotate ever time you change your oil at 5k)
and check all your fluids.brake,PS, etc

noting really major till you hit 30k..

I dug out the Scheduled Maintence Guide for my '04 4Runner and scanned it. Here it is (pdf 928k).

you can get the cabin air filter at the dealer (usually around $35) which is usually a rip off. I would go down to Napa or Kragen Auto Parts, I got one for about $18 - $20. It is really easy to replace, I would do so about every 6000 miles, depending on the driving conditions. There is a topic on this fourm about making your own air filter that works much better than the toyota one. Search for "Cabin Air Filter" and you should be able to find it.

just wondering, is it hard to lube the drive shift and slip joint?
