I'm curious when folks have had their head gaskets fail. Mine are still going strong at 203k (F) and 194k (FT). My kids' cars have nowhere near the mileage I have and I expect theirs to last the life of their cars.

Anything happen to precipitate failure at the mileage you've experienced (overboost, overheat etc.)?
