Can anyone offer an opinion on how well a good quality name brand coax will

Depends on the pH of the soil, moisture, etc. Here, everything is

PVC jacketed stuff will outlast your average hairless ape.

PVC jacketed stuff is the contaminating kind, and will change characteristics
(loss, capacitance, impedance, etc.) in just a couple of years.
