It is up to you Tim. It is your car. I do not replace parts just for the hell of it unless I see an obvious issue with it or proven bad. Bad waterpumps give off a noise or leak so if none of the above why replace it? Unless it is broken why fix it? Under that theory why not just replace everything?
BTW - All my GM cars still have the original water pumps so I do not see the component as a high failure item. How old is my GTP waterpump? Almost 12 years old now? You see what I am getting at.
