allignment or not???

I'm planning a long trip and am thinking about getting front end aligned.
I've had it a little over one year and had new tires at that time.
I don't see any abnormal tire wear and it dosn't pull right or left.
Just thought It wouldn't hurt to have it done.
Problem is it would cut into my gas budget by about $200. Do you think it would be worth it or a waste of money?

I know I'm going to get a lot of "better safe than sorry's".
  • Gotta go with the crowd on this one, no abnormal wear (by feel is a good suggestion) and no pulling, save your $$$ for fuel and fun.

    X6 on it ain't broke. You can run your hand over the tread and feel more than you can see sometimes.
  • If its working well, "letitgo". Save the cash you were going to pay for it and put it in a maintenance fund, so when something does break, you have some cash.
  • Only "IF" you are having issues...sometimes issues start after adjustments and they always find something wrong that needs adjusting.

    Thank you. That's sort of what I was feeling.
