real info on starters and how long they last.

it is how long the copper contacts last.

which is usually around 110,000-160,000 miles on a long-trip dd
and 70,000 - 100,000 miles on a short trip dd
---------------------------------------
replacing the contacts (which are 20 bucks) the starter
should last past 350,000 miles.
