Default What components are the first to fail after 90K?

I'm going to be starting grad school this Fall and I was wondering what parts I should be watching out that might fail in the next few years. I recently had my 90K service done on my 2002 auto so the timing belt and water pump should be good for a while. However, I'm a little worried about the other components in the engine compartment going out on me, especially since I will be moving out of state for school.

Anyone with ideas on the usual things that tend to go out once past the 90K mile range?

are you sure they replaced the water pump? i have heard that lexus doesn't just do the water pump w/the 90k and that you have to ask to have it done.
the 90k should have included everything to keep your car going, but check your fluids, etc. did they change the spark plugs while they were in there?

there's a "high milage is" thread over at my.is you might wanna check out. it really depends on how you treat your car, the conditions it is subject to, etc.
