I don't believe the hour meter is there to guage machinery condition. It all depends on how well the routine maintenance has been done from day one. On a car the recommendend intervals are in miles driven or months elapsed (whichever comes first). My co-workers boat has over 2000 hours on an original 1966 V-8 inboard and still purrs like a kitten. It doesn't even use any oil between changes.
