New 2010 civic

I recently got a 2010 civic lx with 140k miles from a friend. The car had been sitting in her garage for the past 2 yr and not driven or turned on. Got a new battery, and it started right up, replaced the tires and wipers. I know it will need an oil change, but what else should be done to ensure it runs and stays running without issues? I added transmission fluid since it had none but now it shows needing a transmission fluid flush, that will be done tomorrow. Thanks for any input and advice. First time I have ever owned a small car, usually have 4x4 diesel trucks, and I would like to keep this going as long as possible for my 60-80mile a day work commute

Change all the other fluids, probably needs brakes from sitting, plugs, filters.
