Hmm...so I don't love Monroe shocks...

I've had Monroe's on my car for the past five years and haven't had any trouble out of them, but they've probably got less than 1000 miles on them. I was telling my buddy who has worked in auto parts his whole career about this thread. He said "oh yeah, Monroes are junk!" I said why did you let me put them on there then?!?! I'm gonna run em till I start having problems and then I'll upgrade.
