When to change/flush tranny fluid...30,000 miles maintenance?

Did a search and I'm seeing everything from people changing at 1500 miles to others saying you should be good for 250,000 miles.

So what is?

I should hit about 30,000 miles this Fall and was thinking of doing a tranny and coolant flush as part as my service. Should I be worrying about the either?

New, clean fluids never hurt anything. Especially since you're well past the break in period.

Thanks RJ. I must have missed that in the owner's manual.
