No offense, but I think something else is going on here. In the last 60 years, of all the cars I have had, I remember having only one failed thermostat. To have three sets fail in such a short period of time indicates to me that there may be some other problem that is causing the thermostats to fail. Or maybe it is something else going wrong that makes it seem like the thermostats have failed. Either that, or you are one of the unluckiest people I've ever heard of.
