Recommended maintenance: Replace vacuum hoses at 100K miles

.
I decided to pull of the intake manifold to make it easier to replace the PCV valve and knock sensors, and so I decided to do all vacuum hoses too. Glad I decided to go that way. Virtually every hose had hardened to the point of being almost non-flexible. I suspect that many of the hoses would have started leaking vacuum within the next 20k-30k miles.
