Serpentine Belts and Hoses
I still have the original belt and hoses on my 2004 truck with 120000 miles. Would you change them or say if it ain't broke don't fix it?

Replacing a belt is not that expensive. Repair costs for when one fails can be. Mine started to shred this time last year. Hadn't failed completely but by the time I noticed it was failing, belt parts had wrapped around the AC compressor, water pump pulley and punctured a hole in the rad. $2200 later I had a new belt.
