Should I change my chain

If shifting is fine - esp. w/ different cassettes, and chain wear indicator is good, I see no reason to pop $20-50 for a new chain. Confirm your findings w/ an accurately cut 12-inch steel ruler to make sure your chain checker is doing it's job, but the good shifting suggests it is anyway.

A well maintained drivetrain that isn't abused can get lots of miles - might as well enjoy the benefit of your good care and not replace chains/cassettes because somebody's calender says you should.
