Serpentine Belt Life

First off, hello guys.....I am back!

I have a question about my truck's serpentine belt:

Should it be replaced as according to the mileage on
the truck, how long it has been on the truck, or just
how it visually looks?

My truck is an early 2004 model, but only has 16,000
(a tad under actually) miles. The belt is a factory
installed part, Mopar original.

Should I just look and see how it actually looks? I
was looking at those Goodyear Gatorback belts
today.....they look really nice!

Thanks for any and all info!
