That is high Alex. I prefer 50-60k miles to change out mine, just did
them but also put on a new water pump, a Flowkooler now too. I must say
though, the Flowkooler actually makes my engine run hotter, not cooler
as it is advertised. Rascal

I was wondering how often you guys change out your radiator hoses? I've
got 67k miles on her and though the hoses look fine, I was thinking of
changing them. I just hate dealing with anti-freeze and the mess it
makes and having to dispose of it. I got a quotes of around $175 from a
couple of local shops. Seems high considering the parts are about $50
and the labor is simple.
