At what mile did you do your first all-wheel alignment?

Off-centre steering wheel. Hint. Wondering on crowned roads. Hunting turns. As a steering system, the worse your alignment becomes, the dead centre it feels. I went 76,000 miles without an alignment, finally got one. The little idiosyncrasies we noticed - off-accelerator pedal and drift to the right alerted us. Make sure it's an approved 4x4 alignment.

 
Some big Subaru Dealerships have a pad that they drive your vehicle over with lasers and sensors checking for tire uniformity and even cross tread wear for free. I'll try to get the YouTube video. Checking the alignment once a year with the below system is great, especially in Central New York where pot holes are prevalent and a way of life. We hit pot holes on the highways out here to shake one's rear teeth.
