I did the flush because my truck came from a 7-8 hour drive from home and I had no idea what was in it for antifreeze. It seemed clean enough but I didn't entirely trust the guy it came from. Now I'm positive it has the right stuff. I also took that time to swap out the stock 195° thermostat for a 203° unit.
I wouldn't spend a whole lot on things until you've used it in your intended manner a few times and find out what you like or dislike about the performance. Not like it's a daily driver for you. I put money into some performance things on my truck only because it hauls a fairly heavy trailer almost every day during the season that my business is open.
I've got all kinds of links for places that handle parts for Powerstrokes. Everything from a Ford dealer who has reasonable parts prices for Ford factory stuff to providers of filters and various performance parts like turbo intake boots, thermostats, chips, etc. I can PM them to you if you decide on any upgrades in the future.
