If you plan to keep the car for the next 50k miles, you should go ahead with the flush, and repeat every 30,000 miles... preventive maintenance is the only reason these transmissions are bulletproof. Not going ahead with changing the fluid is costly and will result in transmission failure later in life as the fluid breaks down with age and miles.
