I say it will operate with average downtime during peak season between now and the end of it's usable life in 15-20 years or so. First month of operation I'd think it would be above average but better than at SFGAm.

I'm sure the ride will break down, perhaps just as much as it did when it was @ SFGAm. Or maybe less. No one knows for sure. :)

However, I would bet that it will be open more at Silverwood then it was at SFGAm. As Silverwood is a much smaller park, I seriously doubt the ride will ever be closed due to staffing...or if it is, it will not be closed as nearly as often as it was closed in Gurnee because the park didn't staff it.

for new colors make it match its name, make it look like it is from an earthquake, add some theming, they could make it look really cool that way

Kuddos to the MOD who put "All of SFGAmWorld's thoughts and prayers are with the park." :) Sounds like Deja Vu just died or something....
