its not lifted and has some mods, its lifted. That is it, stock filter, stock exhaust, stock stock stock stock. Just a lift and tires.
As far as what i do with it, it sits in my driveway... It used to be the wifes DD, but when she started working .8 miles from home it got parked. No need to drive a diesel such a short distance. And I am military and never home to drive it. it is 2 years old and has 26000 on it, with 22 of those in the first year. It has towed something 5 maybe 6 times, and the heaviest load was 8000lbs.
Im just commenting that my owners manual doesnt call for a 30k flush like the op stated was necessary. its a good idea yes, but not required. And I'm not sure what cheap is, but a trans flush, done right isn't cheap. Cheaper than a tranny yes. but i would have to intend to keep this truck long enough for that to become and issue.
