Not trying to make you feel bad, but they rust the nut breaks off the you will here exhaust noise like some describe as taping/ticking noise, my 01 is OK so far but my now sold 97 had 3 broken studs at 9 years old and 160K so maybe not near future and BTW the starter had never been replaced and when I sold her last September she was running strong with 192K.
