By now you all have probably seen or heard of the 1800ES on e-bay with only 90 mis. Not that I'm interested in buying it but it brings up something I've always wondered: Do rubber bushings (& plastic), especially in the suspension, wear out over time, regardless of the miles driven? They're under a lot of pressure just sitting; but maybe they're made for that. Any opinions from experience? Thanks.
