That green text is murder for us old guys who can't see so good. I don't remember the details of the 30000 mile service, but if Ford will do it for free go ahead, otherwise just take normal good care of your car. I don't think the chasis has any lube issues you need to worry about. Also, you shouldn't have to do anything with your shocks at such a low mileage. I also don't think either of those filters you mention are a big deal. I've just passed 50K miles on my 2000 and it still runs great with just doing the oil changes and minding the fluids. I had the radiator flushed once by Ford and I'd NEVER have them do that again - really didn't need it and it's had an unfindable little buzz ever since. At 30K you're good to go and should just enjoy driving your car.
