As much as i'd like to, i cannot afford to do a
preventative-maitenance replacement of all of my coolant
hoses.  But at nearly 10 years old and 100k miles, my van's
hoses are reaching the point where failures may be
expected.  It would be nice to know if particular hoses
routinely fail, or fail with more frequeancy than other
hoses.

Please tell us about your hose failures so we can see if
there are certain hoses more prone to failure than others so
we can replace them even if we can't afford to replace 'em
all.
