And in my opinion you will be better off for it. IIRC my manual doesn't even mention checking the fluid until 100 or 120k. I checked mine 4 miles up the road from the dealer the day I drove it off the lot..

I will do relatively frequent drain and fills. They are very inexpensive insurance for the DIYer. "Lifetime Fills" have more to do with marketing than engineering and anyone in their automotive relationship for the long haul would be well served by a little service once in a while.
