Car dealership says I "need" to get these things done on my car? Pics attached.

My car is 4 years old, and very well maintained. I was given this estimate from the Toyota dealership. They told me it was preventative maintenance so that “things don’t pile up and leave me scrambling when repairs are needed.” However, I’ve since taken my car to other mechanics for additional quotes, and they didn’t see a need to fix any of the items Toyota recommended.
Now I’m unsure what to do. I’ve always trusted Toyota, but this situation makes me feel like I need to do some more research before moving forward. To my frugal family, what are your thoughts on this?
Update: I'm at 65k miles. I have oil changes every 3 months, I have my brakes changed every year or so, the last time they were changed was 08/2025. Location: NYC
