I'm betting they could make them out of a wear-resistent rubber that would not be so apt to wear out. It is 2012.

Ah yes, but keep in mind - designed obsolescence. THEY have to put their kids through college.

barco made "blue impellers" that were not suposed to burn up, hte EPA put them out of business. I rarely see a worn out impeller, usually i see a burnt one from running it dry. The small diameter mercs are bad about knocking the blades off though, especially if it sat up for a while. The harbor taxi has 2000 hours on their impellers when they let me change them(they were just over a year old)
