Engine - Transmission Service

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to be asking this question. We recently bought a 2004 Newmar Northern Star with 38,000 miles. The previous owner had a major service (M3) performed at 37,000 miles in October 2008.

Do I need to have this serviced now with new fluids, etc?

Do you have proof that the service was performed? Also, do you know exactly what service was performed?

I agree, have service done now. I missed the 2008 date of service so it is time to have it done.
