Expected life of throttle body

Is the throttle body similar to DI in that a large number of them fail by a certain age/mileage? I have a 2000 lpt wagon that I still take on long trips (w/ spare DI on board) and wonder if I'm overdue for a throttle body failure. If so, I might consider preemptive replacement since they're not too expensive in the context of what other tech-y late model replacement parts can run.....
Sometmes following this board can make one paranoid about imminent failure of critical parts and systems. I've had bad luck w/ turbos, but at least they don't leave me stranded when they fail. Although the DI did.
