Neglected preventive maintenance?

Most of us know about oil changes and such. I am wondering what are some of the more unusual items that you all maintain on a regular basis??? Those of us with less inventive minds will profit!!

Things like checking the air pressure in the spare. I hate it when a tire goes flat and the spare is nearly so.

At the end of this, I will try to compile it all so that some of us will do a better job of keeping ahead of the game.
