Congrats and welcome, Nathan!

Definitely address the possibility of the steering lock failing. The easiest way to fix it, is to pull the fuse. Check out these threads -

ATTENTION!! 2009-2010 owners with steering lock/wont start issues

DIY: 2009 - 2010 Steering Wheel Lock Fix w/ Pics!

Also, I see you live in the South, so you will probably want to invest in an oil cooler. Z1 and Stillen are your best bets.

And ordering a magnetic oil drain bolt and filter mag. Doing oil change as ..the administrator sorry haven't remembered his name but a phenomenal write up he did.
