Post Clutch longevity

Just curious to see how people are making out with the standard trannies. What kind of mileage are people getting before it's time to replace the clutch. My driving is about 70% city and the rest highway. I'm not a novice to sticks so I dont ride it much.

Thanks for the replies. I tend to forget it's a truck once and awhile and run thru the gears quickly. Nice to hear I shouldnt need to replace it any time soon.
