Had an '03 Sierra 4x4 went 214,000 on original pump - traded it.

Had a '99 Safari AWD that had two go after about 75,000 miles each ... 196,000 Total miles ... both pumps quit working with NO warning

Never can tell which pump will last and which won't. We generally keep our fuel tanks over quarter tank ... just as a policy.
