    I have about 50 years to go, so I will be 115.

    Well, mine's got 320k up, and I have no idea how the previous owner treated it. So all I can do is service it from back to front (started with replacing the SLS airbags) and see what we've got as time goes on.

    At least we got it cheap and, it was SWMBO's idea to buy it, so I'm in the clear!
