I have a Trane unit in the house I just purchased with a manufacturer date on it of 1994.
Knock on wood - I hope it doesn’t crap out on you tomorrow
Some of these systems last far beyond their expected life. I watch YouTube HVAC repair videos by a guy in MA who routinely repairs 20-25 year old HVACs. Their systems don’t get nearly the run time as much as we do in the South so they apparently last longer. From what I read average expected life expectancy is 13-15 years in the South.

My trane lasted over 30years
And it did not go but the evap coil and I needed to change both cause they needed to stay compatible
My ac guy has been the same for over 20 years and every year came out to service it and said let’s try one more year!
He recommended I bite the bullet this time but said I had the longest lasting one he ever saw. They have a manufacturing date in them some where
Good luck I hope you get another five years out of it
Btw I lived in Houston but only used that house a couple weeks each month for the last ten years
