Mine are shot at 43k and only had the lift on for 1k. I turned the rotors twice too. I'm ordering a new set this weekend with all the sales.

Originals warped at 39,400 miles. Installed Power Stop OEM equiv rotors and pads. They lasted about 41,000 miles. Just installed NAPA Premium rotors and pads. Lets see how far these go. So far they feel better than the Power Stops. I still have Power Stops OEM equiv rears (pads are 1/2 life left).

Mine made it 32K. The OEM pads/rotors suck. I went with wagner thermo quiets after having good luck with them on other vehicles. So far at 10,000 miles no pulsing, no fade, and better stopping power.

I must be doing something wrong. I'm at 136k, original pads and rotors, and Ford just finally said I should think about changing my rear pads in the next 6 months. That'll put me at about 150k on the originals.

Me too at 106,000 still on the original. I hope I don't have to replace all 4 at the same time. That could get pricey.

As others have stated i also had to resurface my rotors at around 30k. Pads looked great with tons of life left but the rotors were grooved and warped. took 2 passes to get them cleaned up, but they are within thickness spec so ill run them until they warp again then look at replacing with something better.

Default Brakes wear faster

Truck is heavy (5000) pounds. I think brakes work harder and pads wear faster stopping that much weight.
