...and that's good. I didn't either before I changed both plugs and wires at about 30K. But a lot of owners are and we're just trying to give the best advise that we can from listening to the owners that have had problems and cured them with a change of plugs and/or wires.

If you haven't had any problems, why then are you so negative in 99% of your posts? I can understand if you've had a multitude of problems, but why post only negative comments when someone asks a question?

Yes, I see that often too. Mods that only give a very slight gain and can really only be seen on a timed drag strip, but what the heck; if the owner "feels" or "thinks" he's getting an adventage from the latest mod, what's the harm except others might buy that same thing thinking they too will get that advantage. Take the famous Throttel Body Spacer. A couple have claimed gas and speed advantage with it. The manufacturer even came out, when questioned, that the advantage can't be measured on a dyno. Great...an $80 part that can't be measured on a machine that measures differences in performance parts. Still, there's owners that will continually buy it when they see people rave or advertisments lie about it.
