Life of shocks/struts 03 4Runner?

My 03 now has 83K on it and the shocks still feel fine but sometimes you don't notice the deterioration over time. What is the general lifespan of the stock struts and shocks? No off roading, limited trailer towing and then only a couple thousand lbs. It's mostly a utility and trip vehicle. The truck has been flawless since new, never back to the dealer except when a squirrel ate my charcoal cannister I plan on keeping this truck for at least another ten years. TIA for any responses.
