Is there any problem getting scheduled maint done at the shop of my choice? The owners manual makes it seem like the dealer is the other place that can do the job without messing something up.

The answer depends on the shop of your choice, as some are more competent than others. Scheduled maintenance can be performed at any competent shop, however, any problems caused by the shop or the use of aftermarket parts would be the responsibility of the shop or the aftermarket parts supplier.
Lexus's job is to bring you to the Lexus dealer every 1000 miles and use only Lexus-branded parts, fluids, and people.
The answer to your question is: no, there's no problem doing it your way.
What?!?!?
Lexus will charge you plenty. After all, if you can afford to buy one, you surely can afford to operate it. Depending on the model, a Toyota dealer may be an option.
