I remember reading Motortrend last week and noticed that fugly Tundra "Work Truck" needed pads, rotors, and tires at some 20,000 miles. What a trooper! lol that's pethetic considering all of the ads they put out stating "and you wanted the big brakes so we gave the new tundra big brakes..." Even the biased Motor Trend thought it was lame that the truck needed work so early. I think I'll stay with the Ford and GM trucks for my work related tasks! lol
Out of curiousity I asked around at work to see what various people are getting with their car brakes and most seemed to be in the 45k range which I also though was pretty low. My cousins Zetec has 170k on the factory brakes. His miles are almost all highway but that's still pretty good. My SVT is pushing 130k on the factory pads and I have allot of stop and go on my commute with stop lights on a highway! [
