did you change AT fluid?

For what reason do you want to change it? Just because you think it will make things last longer? Do you plan to keep the car forever?

I have the 7AT and only plan to keep the car 6-7 years max. If I wanted a car for a long long time (10+ years) I would buy manual for ease of maintenance.

If you really want to change the 7AT fluid then you'll have to decide when. I personally wouldn't bother changing it prior to 30k miles and would likely go to 45k miles.
