I don't quite understand.  How long are they supposed to last?  Getting
another year out of it?  Getting another year out of 20 or 5% increase?
Mine has 319,000 miles on it (1990) and still has the original oil in it.  I
think that if it is done right I should last another 15 years which will
most likely exceed the body and suspension parts.
