I don't think so... everything is sealed, even the wheel bearings. ( I know thats good and bad )

Not unless you install aftermarket suspension parts.

Yeah basically no cars or trucks these days have lube points, everything is a sealed unit lubed for life from the factory. Pretty much nothing is serviceable, if it has a problem, you just replace it. The only things with lube points will be aftermarket suspension stuff you may put on.

Just bought a 2011 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 and found 4 grease points. Was amazed to see this, also put 5 pumps of grease from my gun in each. Guess they forgot to grease before it left the factory. Thankfully the 2010 SS/RS has none.

Maintenance free can be nice but the issue that I'm seeing with my truck now and it can certainly apply to our cars is the fittings (ie ball joints) are starting to dry out. There is no play and the part is still good. If there were a fitting, some grease would add many more miles to it. Time to break out the needle.

If you really felt compelled to do so, you could add zerk fittings to the ball joints. just be sure to get all the shavings out after drilling and tapping.

My 08 silverado 2500hd has a butt load of greaseable connections. At least 6 that I can think of off the top of my head.
