Default PRIA and back-ground check questions?

Hi, I want to get my FAA records just to make sure there are no surprises if I get hired at a FAR 121 Carrier in the future. I don't have anything on my record that I am aware of but was told told by fellow co-workers that it's a good thing to do. So far I have found out this much:

1) I should request PRIA from my current company, I was told that since I have worked at my employer for more than 5 years, that any new airline would only do PRIA for the last 5 years, is that true or should I request PRIA for more than 5 years? (will the carriers even have info on me that is more than 5 years old) I don't want to pay $ to old carriers to get my records for more than 5 years if it's not required.

2) I should request my driving records for the last 10 years.

3) I should request my "Complete Airman File" from the FAA using the "Privacy Act" (This is what the airlines will do to see my Certification, Medical, and Accident/Incident records (I believe all those records are kept forever).

Is there anything else a potential FAR 121 Airline might request?

Thanks.
