On our previous home, everyone in the neighborhood was replacing their
driveways over a period of 5 years -- ours was still in reasonable
condition, because both the previous owner and I sealcoated it.

Interesting when we sold our last house in NJ, it had the same
driveway that had been put in when it was built 17 years earlier,
essentially in the same condition it was in when new (it was not as
dark and black) but after 16 years of snow and ice it suffered no
physical damage and had never been touched with a drop of "sealer".
