I have a 2005 gt 200 with 7000 miles. I live in the Midwest. Should I be concerned about my 20 yo coolant hoses?

I was thinking of replacing them, not realizing that there are SO many of the darn things (10-11?). Is this something I should be replacing now? Are there specific hoses that are more likely to fail than others, if I don't want to replace ALL of them?

Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks,
Jack in NW Chicagoland
