First oil change/trans filter change question

I'm going to be doing my first oil change at 1500 miles in my garage. I know there are many opinions on that, but I alwyas do first oil change early on a new vehicle. I'd like to get that break- in oil out before I really start getting on her. I know that GM covers the first oil change and trans filter change at 7500 miles. My question is, is there any benefit to changing the cartridge trans filter prior to 7500 miles/2 years? My OCD self wants to change it, but topping off the trans fluid after the filter change looks like a real process.

Parents discussing how to get the kids to move out

Parents on the roof, kids still in the nest. It's just about time for them to get out. Lol

I love the liquidation sale

Open box flux 125 for 73 bucks. Didn't want to risk leaving it till tomorrow for the 40% off. Thing looks unused, and no "xxx" carved into it either like most orange tag stuff that I've bought. Now it's time to learn to weld!

Dove out of nest

Today is my first day seeing this baby out of the nest. Note the much larger sibling still in the nest. Should I put the little one back in the nest? One of the parents was sitting on them as recently as this morning

She's back!

I believe this is the same dove that made a nest on my power washer last year, and then on a chair. I'm glad that she's back and a little more out of the way this year

5 drawer cart for the supplies, hercules forced rotation DA polisher prepping the new whip for ceramic coat

I promised Misty that I'd have her ceramic coated before she's broken in. Alkaline prewash followed by acid prewash. Contact wash with neutral, followed by a rinse and then iron remover, rinse and dry. Then clay bar and another wash. Polish and she'll be ready for coating. Good way to spend the day
