Motor Mounts

So I was under my truck this afternoon swapping my forward O2 sensor and I noticed that the rubber isolators in my engine mounts seems quite compressed. To the point where I could see daylight under the mount. It's not to the point of metal-to-metal contact yet (about a quarter inch of rubber instead of what looks like it should be an inch?), but I've got to assume this isn't a good thing.

Thoughts? I've got 114100 on the truck right now, how long would you expect motor mounts to last? When do you call them shot?
