So here is the same ole song and dance. I have the 5.0 and the first brake pads and rotors did not last long at all. Got the rotors resurfaced, new pads...then new pads....now at 80k miles, the front right rotor is all chewed up....left is starting to squeak....had to return to Ford to have a repeat issue...thoughts? (Oh, I am not driving through deep gravel, have not used a run away truck ramp, and I do not clean my wheels and brakes with a sand blaster, LOL)

 

I'd consider 80k miles on the factory rotors a win.

 

This, now do a brake job with quality rotors and pads.

MPD165

 

Forgot to mention that this is the second set of rotors. Not the factory originals.

 

Thoughts? Yeah, install new rotors and pads.

I recently replaced pads and rotors front and rear at 42k miles. I do a lot of around town driving and some light towing. At this point I won't be shocked if I have to replace again at 80k miles but hopefully this aftermarket stuff will get to 100k

 

My fronts are toast at 47k miles, rears have already been resurfaced once.

Waiting to do new rotors/pads all around.

 

I got about 70k miles out of my front rotors, and they were grooved pretty bad. I blame the ceramic brake pads. I bought new Raybestos rotors and Hawk semi-metallic brake pads. The semis should reduce the wear on the front rotors and give me better cold bite when towing. I left ceramics on the back with the original rotors since they had some life left on them and got the best of both worlds.

Sorry I can't comment on my rotor life with the semis, its only been about 5k miles.
