Re: shock lifespan

I'd say it all depends on what types of roads you drive one. LOTS of crappy paved city driving might wear them out sooner than lots of highway driving. San Fancisco, Los Angeles and New York come off the top of my head as pot hole infested cities which can shorten an OE shock's lifespan. But I'd go with Bullshifter's answer. They SHOULD under normal driving, last the life of the car.
